- Tropical
- Temperate
Explanation:
The world is very diverse when it comes to climate. This comes from numerous different factors, with one of the most important ones being the angle at which the sunlight falls on the surface. Some parts of the world are hotter, some colder, some milder, and in some parts, there is a lot of precipitation while at some precipitation is something rarely experienced.
At and near the equator, the climate is tropical, having constantly high temperatures, high humidity, and a solid amount of precipitation. Just north and south of the tropical climate we have the arid climate, characterized by very high temperatures, low humidity, and very low precipitation. The temperate climate is found in the mid-latitudes, bordering the tropical and arid climates, having pleasant temperatures for most of the year, and a medium amount of precipitation. The continental climate is found in the mid-latitudes and deeper into the continents, having extremely low temperatures in winter and high in summer, with precipitation being manifested through both rainfall and snowfall. Polar climate is found around the poles, and this climate is the coldest on average, the precipitation is also very low and when there is some it is manifested through snowfall.
Answer:
Before mountain building occurred, the area was underwater.
Explanation:
Through excavation, fossils that are of marine animals are often found high on mountain ranges. This seems weird from today's perspective, as marine animals can only be found in ocean waters, and there is no way they can travel on land and upon the mountains. Earth has changed a lot throughout history though, so such occurances are actually not that weird.
The mountains in Pennsylvania are such a place, with an abundance of marine fossils. When we look at the geological past of what is now Pennsylvania we can easily see why this is the case. The whole area was actually underwater for millions of years. This was the case before mountain building occurred here when part of the ocean floor raised high above the surface of the water and created land. As the crust was going up, the fossils on it went up as well.
