How do climates a higher elevations tend to compare with climates a lower elevations?
Climates at higher elevations tend to be cooler and have lower average temperatures compared to lower elevations. This is because as you go higher in elevation, the air pressure decreases, leading to a drop in temperature. Higher elevations also usually receive more precipitation, as the air cools and condenses more readily. Additionally, higher elevations often have more variable weather patterns and experience stronger winds.
Do all rivers flow towards the equator?
No. Easy answer. Rivers flow from higher elevations to lower elevations, typically to larger bodies of water.
How do you lower a substance's boiling point?
by lowering the air pressure above it. that's why things boil faster the higher you are (higher elevations compared to lower elevations). you can actually boil water at room temperature by putting it in a container and sucking the air out of it. its kinda neat.
What is the Black Belt in Alabama?
the Black Belt seperates the higher elevations of northern Alabama from the lower Coastal Plain.
Is a snow cap the same elevation all around the world?

What is the importance of the different elevations and depressions in the upper and lower jaw?
The importance of the different elevations and depressions in the upper and lower jaw help it function well. This is because of the space that it provides.
Do humans live on Mount Fuji?
Yes, at the lower elevations.
Why does the Nile flow from south to north?
It flows north because that it the way the surrounding land forces it to flow. Water always flows from higher elevations to lower elevations. It just happens that in the case of northeastern Africa, the higher elevations are further south than the lower elevations. As a result, the water flows from south to north.
What classification or kind of rocks results when rocks eroded from higher elevations accumulate at lower elevations?
asial sedimentary igneous metamorphic
