The correct answer is B. Mediterranean climate is characterized for having sunny, warm summers and mild, wet winters.

Explanation:

The term Mediterranean climate refers to the climate in countries around the Mediterranean Sea. The summers are warm and dry and the winters, in which most rainfall occurs, are mild and wet. The Mediterranean climate is often included in the traditional subtropical climate.

Mediterranean climates occur not only around the Mediterranean, but also in other regions in the border region between the subtropical high pressure and the western wind belt. Examples are some parts of Australia, Chile, South Africa and the United States.

since there isn't any suggested answers i will give you the reason and hopefully you can figure it

south africa, or rather all of africa, has not been in the location in which it is nowadays throughout the geological past. after the super-continent pangaea started to break apart, gondwanaland, in which was africa, moved further south, and parts of it came to be very close to the south pole. because the climate in this part of the world is very cold due to the very dispersed sun rays in there, what is now south africa, started to freeze, and the conditions were right for the formation of glaciers. the glaciers existed up until the period when gondwanaland started to break apart and what is now africa started to move towards north, sp it warmed up and the glaciers melted.
