kvv77 [185]

Answer:

City B of Northern Hemisphere

Explanation:

The major difference between the southern and northern hemisphere is that the southern hemisphere has more water than land. In that case, water heats up and cools faster in Southern hemisphere.

Whereas, in the northern hemisphere there are more lands than water, therefore, land heats up and cool faster. Land absorbs heats faster and releases same faster.  90% of world population lives in the northern hemisphere

The only division between the Southern and Northern hemisphere is the equator.

Base of above explained, there are much temperature variations in the northern hemisphere than in the southern hemisphere, because of large landmass and physical variation of various land forms. Northern hemisphere experiences extreme climate

City B in the northern hemisphere will have largest annual temperaure.

He artic and the antarctic has different variations of day and night do you agree
AysviL [449]

Answer:

The Arctic and Antarctic have the same variations of day and night, but they are in opposite parts of the year.

Explanation:

The Arctic is the region at and around the Northern Pole, while the Antarctic is the continent at and around the Southern Pole. These are the two coldest areas on Earth, and even in what is considered summer the temperatures are very low. They have a lot of similarities but also some differences.

One feature that falls in both categories, similarity, and difference, are the variations of day and night. The similarity is in the fact that both regions experience sunlight constantly for half a year, and then experience night constantly for half a year. The difference though is in the fact that they occur in opposite parts of the year. When the Arctic has half a year of light, the Antarctic has half a year of night and vice versa, and this is due to the tilted axis of Earth.
