latitude affects precipitation (rainfall) because places near the equator are generally hotter and more humid than regions near the poles. When hot and humid air rises it freezes and looses humidity. The humidity is now released into the air and there is condensation. The condensation produces clouds and it rains. This does not happen much near poles because of the lack of humidity.
The latitude receiving the least rainfall is usually around 30 degrees north and south of the equator, in regions known as the subtropics. This is due to the descending air currents at these latitudes, which lead to dry conditions and minimal precipitation.
The four main factors that determine climate are latitude, distance from the sea, altitude, and prevailing wind patterns. These factors influence temperature, precipitation, and other weather patterns in a region.

If, for example, the rainfall is recorded once every week for a whole year, and the recorded results added together, the average would be the total divided by the number of weeks in a year. This will give the average amount of rain that fell during the whole of the year.
Rainfall is crucial for the survival of ecosystems as it provides water for plants, animals, and microorganisms. Adequate rainfall promotes plant growth, which in turn supports a variety of food chains and habitats for different species. However, excessive rainfall can lead to flooding and erosion, disrupting ecosystems. Conversely, lack of rainfall can lead to drought conditions, which can have negative impacts on vegetation and wildlife.
yes it does :)
No :-)
latitude, elevation, anegetation affect climate

yes
Shanghai is located at a latitude of approximately 31.2° N, which influences its climate and seasonal variations. This positioning results in a humid subtropical climate, characterized by hot, humid summers and mild winters. The latitude also affects daylight duration, with longer days in summer and shorter days in winter, impacting agricultural practices and energy consumption. Additionally, Shanghai's latitude contributes to its vulnerability to typhoons and heavy rainfall during the summer months.
Temperature, humidity, and rainfall are abiotic factors that affect mushrooms.
Latitude and longitude have zero affect on any part of the earth. They are simply -- when combined -- axis points that one can use to pinpoint a location.
