Explanation:

The earth can be divided into four temperature zones. They are,

1. Torrid zone: It extends on both sides of the equator bounded by the tropic of cancer and tropic of Capricorn. In this area sun's rays are more or less perpendicular. The temperature in this area is always high.

2. North Temperate zone: This area is between tropic of cancer and Arctic circle in the northern hemisphere. Sun rays do not fall perpendicularly nor slanting at this place. So places within this area neither too hot not too cold.

3. South Temperate zone: This area is between the Tropic of Capricorn and Antarctica circles. Here temperature is neither too hot nor too cold.

4. Frigid zone: The frigid zone in the northern hemisphere lies Arctic circle and the North Pole and in the southern hemisphere between Antarctic circle and south pole. They receive very little heat from the sun and hence very cold.
