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.
Rainwater and rivers/streams
The correct option is a. natural lake that is dry for long periods of time.
<h3>What is playa?</h3>
Playas are flat-bottomed depressions that are sometimes surrounded by water which it slowly seeps into the groundwater system or vaporizes into the atmosphere. As a result, salt, sand, and mud are deposited along the depression's bottom and around its edges.
Some key feature of playa are-
- Playas are also known as pans, flats, or dry lakes.
- They are typically found in inner desert watersheds and close to coasts in arid and semi-arid regions.
- The flattest recorded landforms are playas. Typically, their gradients are less than 0.2 meters per kilometer.
- Many kilometers of surface may be submerged when only a few centimeters of water are added.
- The nearly flawless flatness that is so distinctive of these dry region landforms is developed and maintained by the process of flooding.
- The middle, level basins of arid plains are called playas. They need drainage from the inside to a place where evaporation far outweighs intake.
- A playa lake arises when the area is inundated, concentrating salts and fine-grained debris.
- Playa terminology is somewhat confusing due to the abundance of regional names.
