Heya....✋

✨Latitude⤵

⏩Due to curvature of earth, the amount of solar energy received varies from latitude to latitude. This results in decrease of temp. from equator to poles.

⏩With reference to India, the Tropic of Cancer divides the country into tropical and subtropical zones. Hence, temp. remains high throughout the year in South India(tropical zone) which it is high in summer and low in winter in North India(sub-tropocal zone).

✨Altitude⤵

⏩With increase in altitudes, the atmosphere goes on becoming less dence and temp. goes on decreasing.

⏩With reference to India, though, Udagamandalam(Ooty) lies in the low latitude area(tropical zone), its climatic conditions are different from the adjoining regions because it is located at high altitude.

Hope it helps✅
