∙ 14y agoFalse. One side of one mountain in the Philippines has more tree species than all of Canada.

∙ 10y agoIsn't it the closer to the equator the warmer it is and the farther the colder? because that's what my Biology teacher told me cx
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoYes, due not to the increased light and temperatures, but to the more year round consistent temperatures associated with being close to the equator.

Are tides less the closer to the Equator?
tides are effected by the moon not the earths polaritys
How does latitude related to climate?
Climates closer to the equator are warmer, and those closer to the poles (either north or south) are colder.
What is Near the equator?
Tropical
What statements best explains why areas close to earths equator tend to be warmer than areas farther away from the equator?
Areas close to the Earth's equator tend to be warmer than areas farther away from the equator primarily because sunlight is more direct at the equator. The sun's rays hit the Earth's surface at a higher angle near the equator, resulting in more concentrated energy and heat. In contrast, areas farther from the equator receive sunlight at lower angles, causing the energy to be spread out over a larger area and resulting in cooler temperatures.
How do temperatures at Earths equator compare to the temperatures at the poles?
The temperatures at the equator tend to be warm to hot (except where there are mountains); the temperatures at the poles tend to be below freezing.
What kind of climate usually ha a high biodiversity?
Biodiversity tends to increase as you move toward the equator because temperatures tend to be warmer.
Why do temperatures get higher the closer you get to the equator?
The temperatures at the equator tend to be higher because the equator receives more direct sunlight.

Do places in the world where indigenous people live tend to have high biodiversity?

What is Near the equator?

Does a smaller or bigger space tend to have more biodiversity?
Bigger

What kind of penguins live in Mexico?
The only penguins that live in Mexico would be in a zoo. Mexico is far too warm a climate for penguins, as they tend to live on the Antarctic circle.Mexico, on the other hand, is a subtropical country closer to the Equator. There are penguins to be found on the Galapagos Islands which are near the Equator, but the Galapagos Penguin (Spheniscus mendiculus) is the only penguin that lives north of the equator in the wild.
What would not tend to increase the population of a country?
An increase in immigration
What does the skin effect increase in a conductor?
line losses tend to increase
