1. The answer is; TRUE

Most of these glaciers are found in the Antarctica and Arctic regions of the earth.  The ice sheets cover approximately 10% of the earth’s surface and can extend to 30% in ice ages. Melting of these ice sheets would increase ocean levels by approximately 7o meters.  



2. The answer is; TRUE

Areas that are warm/ hot have low-pressure systems compared to the cold region (with high-pressure systems due to the denser air). Winds tend to blow from high-pressure systems to low-pressure systems.

Topographically, high elevated areas  are also usually cooler than low elevated areas.



3. The answer is; FALSE

Deciduous trees are rather adapted for temperature regions where the 4 seasons of the year are more pronounced compared to the equatorial regions. It is due to this adaptation that these trees shed their leaves during winter and grown them back in summer.
