Answer:

Most of Latin America is located in a Tropical zone that receives the Sun's direct rays yearly.

Explanation:

Latin America, as a region, has almost exclusively tropical types of climates, with Truly Cold climates lacking from the region. The closest that climates get to truly cold types are the highest parts of the Andes and the southernmost part of the region in Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, but none of them have polar-type characteristics all year round.

This climate situation in Latin America is due to its position relative to the Equator. The Equator passes through the widest part of the region, and the vast majority of the territory north and south falls into the tropical realm, and this is also helped by the fact that north and south of the Equator the territory shrinks and the influence of the ocean is greater. The majority of the region has a tropical wet climate, savanna-like grasslands, and tropical deserts.

15. Three types of volcanoes that we discussed in class characteristics of each.

Setler [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

The three main types of volcanoes are as follows:

1. Composite volcanoes: These are also called as strato volcanoes. These are steep and formed by the layers of ashes and lava. The eruption from these volcanoes is in the form of pyroclastic flow. The pyroclastic flow is in the form of superheated mixture which consists of rock dust, ash, and hot steam. These volcanoes can rise above the 8000 feet. These are found in the destructive plate margins. Example of these volcanoes include the Mount Fuji in Japan.

2. Shield Volcanoes: These volcanoes are low and they have gentle sloping sides. These are formed by the layers of lava. Their eruption of lava is non-explosive. These produces the fast flowing fluids that can flow to many miles. These can destroy the nearby surrounding regions can cause injury and even death. These volcanoes are found in the region of constructive boundaries and also at the volcanic hotspots. The examples of shield volcanoes include the Maunaloa on Hawaii.

3. Dome volcanoes: These are also called as acid lava cones as these emit acid which is much thicker than that of the lava. These have steeper sides as compared to the shield volcanoes. The lava is thick and sticky as a result of this it cannot flow to far region and it cools and solidifies. The example of dome volcanoes include the Puy de Dome of Auvergne, France.
