Answer:

Map Cross section

Explanation:

The cross-section of a topographic map is usually defined as the side view of the map, where the contour lines are used in order to show the topography of the area and the presence of surfacial features from the side.

Initially, the cross-sectional site must be selected, then a line is drawn. The contour lines lying on this line are plotted and the topography is drawn. The surface features if present any, are drawn on this side of the topography.

This is how the cross-sectional view of an area is obtained.

Which of the following hest explains why Latin America has no Truly Cold climate types?
Anika [276]

Answer:

Most of Latin America is located in a Tropical zone that receives the Sun's direct rays yearly.

Explanation:

Latin America, as a region, has almost exclusively tropical types of climates, with Truly Cold climates lacking from the region. The closest that climates get to truly cold types are the highest parts of the Andes and the southernmost part of the region in Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, but none of them have polar-type characteristics all year round.

This climate situation in Latin America is due to its position relative to the Equator. The Equator passes through the widest part of the region, and the vast majority of the territory north and south falls into the tropical realm, and this is also helped by the fact that north and south of the Equator the territory shrinks and the influence of the ocean is greater. The majority of the region has a tropical wet climate, savanna-like grasslands, and tropical deserts.
