How is sunlight distributed in temperate and frigid zones
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
The two frigid zones, or polar regions, experience the midnight sun and the polar night for part of the year - at the edge of the zone there is one day at the winter solstice when the Sun is invisible, and one day at the summer solstice when the sun remains above the horizon for 24 hours.
Answer:
The Temperate Zone lies between the Tropic of Cancer 23 1/2° N and Arctic Circle 66 1/2° N in the "Northern Hemisphere" (Northern Temperate Zone) and between the Tropic of Capricorn 23 1/2° S and Antarctic Circle 66 1/2° S in the "Southern Hemisphere" (Southern Temperate Zone). This zone receives slanting sunlight or sunrays. This is why this place is moderately heated up.
The Frigid Zone lies between the Arctic Circle 66 1/2° N and North Pole 90° N in the "Northern Hemisphere" (Northern Frigid Zone) and between the Antarctic Circle 66 1/2° S and South Pole 90° S in the "Southern Hemisphere" (Southern Frigid Zone). This zone receives extreme slanting sunlight or sunrays. This is why this place is moderately freezing cold.
