Answer:

Altitude : Elevation plays a large role in the health and growth of plants. Elevation may affect the type and amount of sunlight that plants receive, the amount of water that plants can absorb and the nutrients that are available in the soil. ... Plants in higher elevations can typically withstand colder climates.

Latitude : Because the Earth is roughly circular, the higher latitudes are further away from the sun and thus don't receive as much sunlight as the equator. ... With higher temperatures, plants have adapted to using less water during the day or they would wilt in the higher heats.
