Why is precipitation heavier in the persistent low pressure zones of the world?

Persistent low pressure zones create a more favorable environment for rising air and cloud formation. As the air rises and cools, it can reach its dew point, leading to condensation and precipitation. Additionally, low pressure systems often have converging air masses that can further enhance uplift and precipitation.

Which factors are most important in determining the distribution of biomes around the world?

The most important factors in determining the distribution of biomes around the world are temperature, precipitation, and soil type. These factors influence the types of vegetation that can grow in an area and ultimately determine the biome that is present. Temperature affects plant growth and survival, precipitation determines water availability for plants, and soil type influences nutrient availability and drainage.
