The state receives heavy rainfall during the monsoon season, which runs from June to September. The gabled roofs and sloping structures of Kerala&#8217;s architecture are designed to withstand the heavy rains. The gabled roofs help to direct the rain away from the walls of the building, while the sloping structures help to prevent the water from pooling on the roof.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Earthquakes are not a major concern in Kerala. The state is located in a seismically stable region.<\/li>\n<li>Extreme heat is not a major concern in Kerala. The state has a tropical climate, with average temperatures ranging from 25 to 30 degrees Celsius.<\/li>\n<li>Cyclones are a rare occurrence in Kerala. The state is located on the eastern coast of India, which is not as prone to cyclones as the western coast.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Earthquakes&#8221;
