    D. Northern Hemisphere temperatures are more strongly dominated by continentality than are Southern Hemisphere temperatures

    Explanation:

    Northern Hemisphere also called as the land hemisphere, It is due to this reason (large land cover) the northern part of the earth has more temperature than the southern part (the rivers and other bodies of water are dominant more in the southern hemisphere owning to this the southern face of the earth is cooler comparatively.)

    Northern part experience heats more often due to the influx of rivers and salinity raised by the continents as compared to that of the southern counterparts, which offer more mobility, and less salinity.

    The water hemisphere that is southern part has only 1/8th of landmass covering 89% of the globe. Thereby experiencing strong horizontal winds in motion and cool geosynclinal patterns.
