State how latitude affects the temperature of a place.

Short Answer
Advertisements

Solution

A location's temperature is influenced by its latitude because, because of the Earth's spherical form and yearly rotation around the Sun, temperatures drop as latitude increases on either side of the equator. Additionally, the midday Sun is at oblique angles outside the tropics but almost overhead within them.
