Question

Which of the following statements is best supported by the data in the Insolation layer? View Available Hint(s) Which of the following statements is best supported by the data in the Insolation layer? The slopes of the Himalayas represent an area of uniform insolation. The cloud cover of the ITCZ limits insolation just south of the equator at this time. At this time of year, insolation is generally greater in the Antarctic polar region than the Arctic polar region. The regions of highest and lowest insolation in the contiguous United States are both located in the western part of the country. North Africa receives substantially less insolation than Sub-Saharan Africa

Answer 1

Answer:

North Africa receives substantially less insolation than Sub-Saharan Africa.

Explanation:

North Africa receives less solar radiation from the sun as compared to Sub-Saharan Africa because north Africa is far from equator whereas the Sub-Saharan Africa is located near and on the equator zone. Those regions who are on the equator experience direct solar radiation of sun that leads to higher insolation as compared to areas which is far away from equator receives lower insolation so that's why North Africa have low insolation as compared to Sub-Saharan Africa.
