प्रश्न
What is the relation between the latitudinal extent and temperature of a region?

उत्तर
- As we move away from 0° latitude, i.e. from equator towards north and south pole, the temperature decreases.
- The region between 0° to 23°30' North and South, i.e. Torrid zone receives perpendicular sunrays, thus the temperature of this region is high.
- The region between 23°30' to 66°30' North and South, i.e. Temperate zone receives slant sunrays, thus the temperature of this region is comparatively low.
- The region between 66°30' to 90° North and South, i.e. Frigid zone receives extremely slanting sunrays, thus the temperature of this region is very low.

Explain the following:
Water is heated generally from below.
Assertion: When water is heated up to 100°C, there is no raise in temperature until all water gets converted into water vapour.
Reason: Boiling point of water is 10°C.
Give reasons why –
a steam burn is more damaging than a burn caused by boiling water at the same temperature.
