In 1885 European leaders met at the infamous Berlin Conference to divide Africa and arbitrarily draw up borders that exist to this day. Lines of longitude and latitude, rivers and mountain ranges were pressed into service as borders separating the colonies.

Answer:
The five main latitude regions of Earth's surface comprise geographical zones[1], divided by the major circles of latitude. The differences between them relate to climate. They are as follows:
The North Frigid Zone, between the North Pole at 90° N and the Arctic Circle at 66° 33' N, covers 4.12% of Earth's surface.
The North Temperate Zone, between the Arctic Circle at 66° 33' N and the Tropic of Cancer at 23° 27' N, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.
The Torrid Zone, between the Tropic of Cancer at 23° 27' N and the Tropic of Capricorn at 23° 27' S, covers 39.78% of Earth's surface.
The South Temperate Zone, between the Tropic of Capricorn at 23° 27' S and the Antarctic Circle at 66° 33' S, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.
The South Frigid Zone, from the Antarctic Circle at 66° 33' S and the South Pole at 90° S, covers 4.12% of Earth's surface.

On the basis of latitudinal extent, the globe is divided into three broad heat zones.
Answer:
Tundra
Explanation:
This particular region of Russia is typically cold all year, the ground being permanently frozen (permafrost).
In the medical field the basic ideas of geospatial technology can be applied. Similar to a GPS, doctors have tools to provide pinpoint measurements of information via remote sensing applications such as X-Rays and other body scans. The GIS then can be applied to take the data along with other forms of information to apply a layering of all the information to produce statistical reports. These reports are then analyzed to form a diagnosis and then determine a predictive measurement for a positive effect.
