B Torrid Zone
C Temperate Zone
D Frigid Zone
Based on temperature, the Earth is divided into three zones- the Torrid Zone, the Temperate Zone, and the Frigid Zone.
The Torrid Zone is located between the Tropic of Cancer (23.5°N) and the Tropic of Capricorn (23.5°S).
The Temperate Zone is located between the Tropic of Cancer (23.5°N) and the Arctic Circle (66.5°N) in the northern hemisphere and between the Tropic of Capricorn (23.5° S) and the Antarctic Circle (66.5° S) in the southern hemisphere.
The Frigid Zone is located between the Arctic Circle (66.5°N) and the North Pole (90°N) in the northern hemisphere and stretches out between the Antarctic Circle(66.5° S) and the South Pole (90°S) in the southern hemisphere.
