Which of the following best explains why the latitude of a region influences its climate?
Rudik [331]

Answer:

"The latitude of a region determines how much sunlight the area receives" this statement says about why the latitude of a region influences its climate.

Explanation:

The latitude determines the sunlight of the area receives because, the more the latitude the sharper will be angle of the sun's rays which will reach the surface. Means that the rays of the sun are being spread over the broader area. Hence, More the latitude receive will be the less than the lower latitude areas located nearer to the equator. As, we know the sun's ray first strikes over the Earth's surface which is near the equator as these places receive direct solar radiation. At greater latitude the solar radiations gets spread in more area and hence the temperature also reduces.
