Question

Which blow toward the low-pressure areas of the westerlies?


trade winds
horse latitudes
polar easterlies

Answer 1

The winds that blow toward the low-pressure areas of the westerlies are the **polar easterlies**.

To clarify the other terms:
- **Trade winds** are the easterly winds that occur in the tropics, blowing from the east towards the west.
- **Horse latitudes** refer to the belt of calm air found at about 30 degrees latitude, where the trade winds from the northern and southern hemispheres meet.

Thus, the correct answer is **polar easterlies**.
