Refer to figure.
The front located from 10°W to 10°E is most likely to be
  • A
    an active occlusion moving south
  • B
    a quasi-stationary front.
  • C
    a cold front moving south.
  • D
    an active warm front moving north.

Refer to figure.

From 10ºW to 10ºE, we can find a stationary front. This type of fronts occurs when 2 airmasses meet and neither of them has the “strength” to replace the other, they become “stuck” against each other. In this case, we have two high pressure systems which stopped moving and are now stuck against each other.

You can also identify this type of front by the way it is represented in the chart – please refer to the attachment.
