What zones are north and south of the tropics zones?
North of the Tropic of Cancer is the North Temperate Zone, while south of the Tropic of Capricorn is the South Temperate Zone. These zones have milder climates compared to the tropical zones due to their distance from the equator.
What is the two imaginary lines above and below the equator?
The two imaginary lines above and below the equator are the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. The Tropic of Cancer is located at approximately 23.5 degrees north latitude, while the Tropic of Capricorn is at about 23.5 degrees south latitude. These lines mark the northernmost and southernmost points at which the sun can be directly overhead during the solstices. They are significant in defining the Earth's tropical zones and influencing climate and seasons.
How much of Australia's landmass lies above the tropic of Capricorn?
The Tropic of Capricorn crosses Australia a little above the middle. However, the percentage of land would be much less than 50% because of the shape of Australia - below the line it bulges, while it thins to points above it.
Do Europe and antarctica extend into the tropic time zones?
All time zones make their way through the 'topics': there is no 'tropical time zone'. Antarctica has no time zones. Research stations set their clock so as to coordinate with their support countries' time zones. There is no standard.
Which is not a tropical zone how do you explain this?
The polar regions, such as Antarctica and the Arctic, are not considered tropical zones. Tropical zones are characterized by warm temperatures and high humidity year-round, typically found between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. In contrast, polar regions experience extreme cold, long winters, and short summers, making them fundamentally different from tropical climates.

Where are the tropical zones temprete zones and polar zones?
The tropical zones are located near the equator, between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. The temperate zones lie between the tropics and the polar circles, around 30 to 60 degrees latitude in both hemispheres. The polar zones are near the North and South Poles, beyond the Arctic and Antarctic Circles.

Where do temperate zones form?
Temperate zones are typically located between the Tropic of Cancer and the Arctic Circle in the Northern Hemisphere, and between the Tropic of Capricorn and the Antarctic Circle in the Southern Hemisphere. These zones experience moderate temperatures and distinct four seasons throughout the year.
Separates the tropics from the temperate zones in the southern hemisphere?
The Tropic of Capricorn.
What Are hottest and the coldest zones of the earth?
The Hottest Part of the Earth's Zones is The Tropic of Caner/Capricorn (23.5*) (South and North)
What tropical zone is America in?
The United States primarily falls outside the tropical zone, which is defined by the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. However, the southernmost parts of Florida and Hawaii experience tropical climates. These regions have warm temperatures year-round and receive significant rainfall, characteristic of the tropics. Overall, the majority of the U.S. is situated in temperate zones.
What are the regions called between the Tropic of Cancer and the Arctic Circle and the Tropic of Capricorn and the Antarctic Circle?
Those are the North and South Temperate Zones, respectively.
What creates climate zones?
The three climate zones (tropic, temperate, and polar) are separated vy imaginary lines on the Earth's surface (like the Equator). The tropic zone is in between the Tropic or Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn, the temperate zone is in between the Tropic of Cancer and the Arctic Cirlce and between the Tropic or Capricon and the Antarctic Circle. The polar zone is the rest. I hope that made sense. ;)
What are the four main lines of latitude?
Well there's the Arctic Circle, Antarctic Circle, Tropic of Cancer, Tropic of Capricorn and the Equator.
