Use information above. What is the Circumference of the Earth (at the equator)? \( \begin{array}{ll}\text { 2) }\end{array} \) Resuelve un problema. Observa el mapa de los monzones de la página 48. Si dirigieras una agencia turistica. ¿en qué época recomendarias viajar a Tailandia, en verano o en invierno? ¿Por qué? 2. The Himalayas in central Asia are the tallest mountains in the world. But fossils of seashellis can be found high in these mountains, far from any ocean. How do you think they got there? 8. Looking at the globe, provide one or more guesses to explain why there is a greater difference in temperature (for example, summers in the Northern Hemispheres are hotter, but winters are colder) between winter and summer in the Northern Hemisphere than the Southern Hemisphere. (HINT: search for a map of the Earth and observe the surfaces. What is there more of in the Southern Hemisphere that could potentially stabilize the temperature and cause less extreme seasonal variation? - "I chose the [tropical/subtropical (dry)/temperate/polar) climate zone because.." - "In this climate zone, convection currents affect the weather by.." - "Global winds play a significant role in this zone by.." - "The jet stream influences the weather here by.." - "For example, in [region/location], we see how.." Part 2: Respond to Your Classmates 5 Multiple Choice 20 points What defines the tropical climate region? Freezing temperatures and icy landscapes Deserts with precious rainfall Abundant rainfall and consistently warm temperatures Seasonal temperature extremes 3 Multiple Choice 20 points According to our notes, what is weather? Mother Nature's personality The short-term atmospheric conditions The long-term average of atmospheric conditions The packing list for a whole season Multiple Choice 20 points Which type of climate region experiences limited rainfall and often includes deserts? Continental Temperate Dry Tropical 8 Multiple Choice 5 points Why are places near the equator generally warmer? (7.E.1.5) The Earth's spinning top effect increases temperature Due to increased cloud cover Closer proximity to the Sun results in more sunlight concentration Because of reduced sunlight exposure Multiple Choice 5 points What role does the jet stream play in influencing weather down below? (7.E.1.5) It guides storms and influences weather patterns It is responsible for consistent clear skies. It has no impact on weather patterns It creates calm weather conditions only Multiple Choice 5 points Where is the continental climate typically found? (7.E.2.2) Coastal areas with moderating ocean influences Near the equator with consistent temperatures In the heart of continents, away from moderating ocean influences Regions with mild and consistent temperatures year-round 7 Multiple Choice 5 points Which of the following is not a characteristic of wind patterns? (7.E.1.5) Balance temperatures Redistribute warmth Can be controlled Move from high pressure areas to low pressure areas. 4 Multiple Choice 5 points Which of the Global Winds are located near the equator? (7.E. 1.5) Trade winds Westerlies Easterlies Ocean currents 5 Multiple Choice 5 points What characterizes the polar climate region? (7.E.1.5) Scorching summers and snowy landscapes Seasonal temperatures Warm temperatures and abundant precipitation Freezing temperatures, icy landscapes, and hardy wildife
