Correct Answer: Very hot during summer and very cold during winter


Solution : The correct option is Very hot during summer and very cold during winter.

Continentality refers to the degree to which a region experiences extreme variations in temperature and climate due to its distance from the moderating influence of oceans or large bodies of water. In areas with high continentality, such as the interior of large landmasses like Eurasia or North America, temperatures can vary significantly between hot summer and cold winter because there is less water to stabilize the climate.
