What would happen if the monsoons are weak in a year?
A
Water level will go-down
B
Summer will be longer
C
Crops will be affected
D
All of these
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -When the summer monsoon is late or weak, the regions economy suffers. Fewer people can grow their own food, and large agribusinesses do not have produce to sell. Governments must import food. Electricity becomes more expensive, sometimes limiting development to large businesses and wealthy individuals.

Detailed explanation-2: -The monsoon climate occurs because of the differential heating of the land and water bodies. Air crosses the equator and turns right to the low pressure zone over the subcontinent of India after moving from a high pressure area over the southern Indian ocean.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Monsoon winds are classified into southwest monsoon and Northeast Monsoon on the basis of the direction from where they blow.

Detailed explanation-4: -The arrival of the monsoon rains brings not only much needed water for crops, but welcome relief from the searing heat. Pre-monsoon showers and some thunderstorms have already arrived in certain dry areas across the south of India, bringing a welcome taste of what is, hopefully, soon to come.
