Geography
1 answer:
Aliun [14]3 years ago
3 0

The correct matches are:

- A. Tropical - On the Equator;

- B. Dry - Near the Equator;

- C. Moderate - Mildest weather;

- D. Continental - Severe temperature changes;

The climate types differ from one place to another on our planet, and in general they are separated in zones in accordance to the latitude at which they are.

The tropical climate is the one that lies on and around the Equator, and it is warm and wet for the whole year. Little north and south of the Equator we encounter the dry climates, where the landscape is occupied by deserts, with extremely high temperatures, and very little precipitation. Further north come the moderate climate types and the continental climate types, they are similar to each other, but the temperatures in the moderate climates have less variation, while in the continental ones it is much bigger, also the moderate ones have more precipitation, and the continental ones have less precipitation. They are both in the mid-latitudes.

7. The narrow band of windless area just north and south of the Tropics is
Lorico [155]

Answer:

C. Horse Latitudes

Explanation:

The "horse latitude" is an area located on the north and south of the tropics–<u>30 degrees north of the equator </u>and <u>30 degrees south of the equator</u>. The wind in this area separates into different directions; thus resulting to a narrow band of windless area or<em> calm wind. </em>It is also characterized by sunny, clear skies and little to no precipitation.

The term was derived from a historical event during the opening of the New World. Many people transported horses via ships. When they reached this windless area, they had a hard time sailing towards their destination. So, what they did was to throw the horses into the sea to make their ships lighter.
