Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
An isohyet is a line joining places receiving equal rainfall. In Rajasthan, the 50 cm isohyet line is considered highly significant because it divides the state into two nearly equal parts:
West of the 50 cm isohyet: Arid and semi-arid desert region with low rainfall.
East of the 50 cm isohyet: Comparatively humid region with higher rainfall and better agricultural conditions.
Therefore, the isohyet line that almost divides Rajasthan into two halves is the 50 cm isohyet.
