Answer:
There are basically 6 factors that affects climate of a place :
Latitude: As the earth is round, sunlight does not reach everywhere equally. The temperature decreases as we move from the equator to the poles.
Altitude: As we move from the surface of the earth to the higher altitudes, the temperature decreases.
Pressure and wind system: The pressure and wind system of any area depend on the latitude and altitude of that place. Thus, it influences the temperature accordingly.
Distance from the seA :Coastal regions are cooler as compared to interior regions. As the distance from the sea increases, its influence decreases and the people experience extreme weather conditions.
Ocean current : Cold ocean currents flowing over a region will decrease the temperature of that area whereas warm currents will increase the temperature.
Relief features: Relief features are the barriers that block currents from entering the country. High mountains act as barriers for cold or hot wind
2) The government has taken many steps in order to protect Indian wildlife. They are
1. The Indian Wildlife Act was passed by the government in 1972 for the protection of plants and animal species.
2. The Act banned hunting and poaching of animals and provided legal protection to their habitats.
3. The central and state governments have established many wildlife sanctuaries and national parks in order to protect forests and wildlife.
4. Various projects regarding the conservation of endangered species such as tiger and one-horned rhino have been initiated by the government.
5. The government, through the introduction of a joint management programme, has involved local communities in the management of forests.
3) There are large number of climbers and creepers in the Amazon rainforest because this forest receives huge rainfall which is about more than 200 cm . That's why this forest have very dense trees that are dense canopies because of that sunlight couldn't reach on the ground. Therefore the ground in the forest remains wet which makes the soil yeild which will be suitable for growing any time of plant and can also ne grown without seeds because it produce moisture and provide nutrition to the soil.."Thus a huge amount of climbers and creepers grew in the decideois forests because these forests do not have lack of water and nutrition for any kind of plant"
4) Tropical evergreen forests are found in regions between the tropics where the climate is not jor and humid throughout the year . Rainfall is heavy which promotes thick growth of foilage.
