Solution

The mean average temperature of the earth is about 14°C to 17°C. This temperature range is important because it is suitable for sustaining life, being neither too hot nor too cold. Earth’s optimal distance from the Sun, combined with its atmosphere that moderates temperature by retaining heat at night and limiting excessive heating during the day, helps maintain these life-supporting conditions. This moderate temperature allows water to exist in liquid form and supports diverse ecosystems essential for human survival and other life forms.
