What zones do the lines of longitude divide the world into?

The polar and temperate zones and the tropics.


Can you Show me a diagram of the earth and the three main climate zone?

I'm unable to display images. However, the three main climate zones on Earth are the tropical zone near the equator, the temperate zones in the middle latitudes, and the polar zones near the north and south poles. These zones are determined by the angle of incoming sunlight and the Earth's spherical shape.


What are the areas between the five lines of latitudes?

The question appears to be based on a complete lack of understanding of the lines of latitude.From North to South, the regions are as follows:90 N to 66.5 N : Northern Polar Zone.66.5 N to 23.5 N : Northern Temperate Zone.23.5 N to 23.5 S : Tropical Zone.23.5 S to 66.5 S : Southern Temperate Zone.66.5 N to 90 N : Southern Polar Zone.These zones are defined by 6 latitudes, not five. Also, 90 N and 90 S are not lines: they are points. Furthermore, the equator does not play a role in defining zones.


What are Tropical temperate and polar climate zones caused by?

Tropical climate zones are caused by the direct sunlight near the equator, resulting in consistent warm temperatures. Temperate climate zones are caused by the Earth's tilt, creating distinct seasons with moderate temperatures. Polar climate zones are caused by the polar regions receiving minimal sunlight due to their high latitudes, resulting in cold temperatures.


What importances of latitude?

Lines of latitude allow any position north or south of the Equator to be found with reasonably accuracy. Which, along with lines of longitude, are extremely important in the navigation of shipping.

Why latitudes lines sre useful?

they are useful because in that way you may find easily the climatic zones and their degrees and when joined together with lines of longitude you may find the location of a place.

Which three major climate zones occur at certain latitudes?

The three major climate zones are tropical, temperate, and polar. The tropical zone is located near the Equator and has warm temperatures year-round. The temperate zone is found between the tropics and the polar regions, with distinct seasons. The polar zone is situated near the poles and experiences extremely cold temperatures.
