Question

Which of Latin America’s elevation zones is the coldest and experiences permanent ice and snow?

Answer 1

Answer:

  C. Tierra Nevada.

Explanation:

   There are five vertical climate zones in Latin America they are: Tierra Caliente (hot land), Tierra Templada (tempered land), Tierra Fría (cold land), Tierra Helada (frozen land), and Tierra Nevada (snowy land).

  Although you may think that the correct answer is option B, Tierra Helada, in this region there´s still grass. It provides little places to farm and is excellent grazing land for Llamas and Alpacas.

  Tierra Nevada is the final region of the elevation zones, above it, ice and snow cover the ground throughout the entire year.

  I hope this answer helps you.

 

Answer 2

The correct answer is C) Tierra Nevada.

The Latin America’s elevation zone that is the coldest and experiences permanent ice and snow is Tierra Nevada.

We are talking about some high places in the Andes Mountains in South America. It is located on the peak of the Andes mountains where there is snow all the time. It one of the coldest places on Earth. The other kinds of "Tierras" are Tierra Helada, Tierra Fría, Tierra Templada, and Tierra Caliente, at the bottom of the mountain. Andean people can only grow crops in the Tierra Caliente, Templada, and Fría because the other two are too cold to allow crops to grow.
