Which biomes starting with one that is usually closest to the equator and then progressing to the one that is usually farthest from the equator?
The biome typically closest to the equator is the tropical rainforest, characterized by high biodiversity and dense vegetation. Moving poleward, the next biome is the savanna, which features grasslands with scattered trees and a distinct wet and dry season. Further north or south, we encounter the temperate forest biome, known for its seasonal changes and a variety of deciduous and coniferous trees. Finally, the tundra biome, located farthest from the equator, is marked by cold temperatures, minimal vegetation, and a short growing season.
Latitude is the distance north and south of the?
Equator. Rather than distance, it is represented as an angle in degrees and parts of a degree. The angle is that formed at the center of the earth, between the lines form the center to the equator, and the center to a point north or south on the surface. Latitude is a horizontal line, on the lines of the equator, such as the Tropic of Cancer, Tropic of Capricorn and the Arctic and Antarctic Circles. So it would define north or south if that answers your question.
