Question

Shanghai and Buenos Aires are located thousands of miles apart and in different hemispheres, yet their climates are similar. What reasoning could explain this?

Answer 1

They are similar because they are both located near the same parallel on the opposite hemisphere. Imagine it like like a mirror. From the North pole towards the equator the climate changes, and then it is mirrored in the southern hemisphere going from the equator towards Antarctica. They are located in the same parts of their respective hemispheres.
