What statements best explains why areas close to earths equator tend to be warmer than areas farther away from the equator?
Areas close to the Earth's equator tend to be warmer than areas farther away from the equator primarily because sunlight is more direct at the equator. The sun's rays hit the Earth's surface at a higher angle near the equator, resulting in more concentrated energy and heat. In contrast, areas farther from the equator receive sunlight at lower angles, causing the energy to be spread out over a larger area and resulting in cooler temperatures.
What side of the equator is colder north or west?
depending on how far away from the equator you go in either direction North or south, it will be equally warm and cold, depending on the season, but the closer to the equator you are the warmer it is.
How are a place and a region alike?
Many, many things. To name a few.. The locations proximity to the ocean, its elevation, and its proximity to the equator. Those lands that are at low elevations, close to the equator and the ocean tend to have a wetter and warmer climate. While those that are at higher elevations away from the ocean and equator tend to be cooler and drier.Latitude, terrain, and altitude determines a climate.ocean currents, mountains, elevation, and latitude
How does latitude effect climate?
Latitude affects climate by determining the angle at which sunlight strikes the Earth's surface. Areas closer to the equator receive more direct sunlight and therefore tend to be warmer, while areas closer to the poles receive sunlight at a more oblique angle, leading to cooler temperatures. This variation in sunlight intensity is a key factor in shaping global climate patterns.
Why do you think it matter if you are close or far away from the equator?
It matters how far or near you are to the equator because the closer you are to the equator the hotter your climate is. For example, the climate in Florida is much warmer than the climate in Canada. This is because the equator is MUCH closer to Florida than it is to Canada.
As you get close to the equator what does the temperature usually get?
when you get closer to the equator the temperture is usually warmer
Does it snow in the southwest region?
no because the southwest is very close to the equator and the closer you are to the equator the warmer it is.
Does the temperatures usually get cold when you get close to the equator?
No, in fact the temperatures get warmer.

Why is it warmer in the south of the UK?
Probably because it benefits from its proximity to the gulf stream.
Why is most of Africa warm?
because Africa is really close to the equator. even though some parts are cooler because of elevation, most of Africa is warm because of its distance from the Equator

Was Antarctica ever close to the equator in its history?
Yes, millions of years ago, Antarctica was located closer to the equator within a warmer climate. This was due to the shifting of tectonic plates and changes in Earth's orbit and axial tilt.
Is the tundra close to the equator?
Yes the tundra biome is close to the equator.
