The position of a place north or south of the equator is described
in terms of its latitude.  Since we're talking about the surface of
a sphere, latitude is an angle, and its value is given in angle
measure. 

Any unit of angle is fine ... degrees, radians, grads, etc., and if
you're given an angle in one unit, you can always easily change
it to a unit that you like better ... but 'degrees' has been the unit
used most often for latitude, and longitude too, practically since
the whole system was invented a few hundred years ago.

For parts of an angle smaller than a whole degree, 1/60 of a
degree (minutes) and 1/3600 of a degree (seconds) were used
traditionally for the first couple hundred years.  But that ponderous,
inconvenient system is rapidly giving way now to plain old decimal
degrees, probably because those are easier for the computer to handle.

What geographic feature is indicated by #10?
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Zagros Mountains

Explanation:

The Zagros Mountains are one of the most dominant geographic features in the Middle East. This mountain range has length of roughly 1,600 km. There are three countries through which the Zagros Mountains are stretching, those being Turkey, Iraq, and Iran. The majority of the Mountain range runs through Iran, making up big portion of the border with Iraq, as well as being a natural barrier at the southern coast of the country.

These mountains have elevation of over 4,400 meters above see level. They are responsible for the dry climate in Iran, as they are a big natural barrier for the air masses, so they create a rain shadow, making the interior of Iran very dry.
