Question

How does latitude help in climate change

Open in App
Solution

Places that like on a higher latitude are colder. This is because due to the curvature of the earth's surface, such places are further away from the sun. Hence, they receive lesser amount of heat. Places closer to the equator are warmer as they are closer to the sun.
