Question

The Oklahoma Panhandle has a different climate than the eastern portion of the state, primarily due to __________. a. differences in soil conditions b. differences in elevation c. differences in population density d. differences in animal ecosystems

Answer 1

It would be B, differences in elevation.

Explanation: Its the panhandle. So it's hotter there than it would be in other places of the state. There's mesas up there too like the Black Mesa, which is Oklahoma's highest point, standing at 4,973 feet. Plus its further to the North than it is the East which makes it more susceptible to fluctuations in temperature.
