Identify the tropical zones and the temperate zones.<br>did I do it right?
Blizzard [7]

Zone 3 is a tropical zone, while zones 2 and 4 are temperate.

Since Zone 3 is around the equator and between the two tropics, it is a tropical zone.

Zone 2 and 4 are temperate since they are farther away from the equator, but not too close to the North and South poles.


I hope this helped! :-)

Explain how the sun determines climate distribution. What type of weather conditions does the sun control?
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

The rate of energy coming from the Sun changes slightly day to day. It has been suggested that changes in solar output might affect our climate both directly, by changing the rate of solar heating of the Earth and atmosphere, and indirectly, by changing cloud forming processes

The Sun warms our planet, heating the surface, the oceans and the atmosphere. This energy to the atmosphere is one of the primary drivers our weather. Our climate is also strongly affected by the amount of solar radiation received at Earth.
