1. An imaginary line on which the earth rotates
⇒Earth's Axis of Rotation.
Basic Definition
The straight line through all fixed points of a rotating rigid body around which all other points of the body move in circles.
Informa. of axis of rotation In context with Earth :
It is an imaginary line drawn straight through Earth connecting the North Pole to the South Pole .
2.A three dimensional model of the Earth
⇒Globe
Basic Definition
Globe, sphere or ball that bears a map of the Earth on its surface and is mounted on an axle that permits rotation.
More about Globe :
- Globe is a three-dimensional scale model of Earth, the only geographical representation suffering no distortion.
- A globe has sometimes relief, showing topography.
- The ancient Greeks, who knew the Earth to be a sphere, were the first to use globes to represent the surface of the Earth.
A heat zone located near the poles
⇒ Frigid Zone (North and South)
Definition of Heat Zones :
Heat zones are the zones of the earth, where the sun's rays fall differently, which causes different climate patterns.
More about heat zones :
- The world is sometimes divided into five (three main) zones according to latitude.
- One Torrid Zone
- two Temperate Zones
- two Frigid Zones.
- Torrid Zone
The tropical, or Torrid Zone, lies near the Equator and extends to the Tropic of Cancer in the north and the Tropic of Capricorn in the south.
- Temperate Zone
The north temperate zone extends from the Tropic of Cancer at about 23.5 degrees north latitude to the Arctic Circle at about 66.5 degrees north latitude.
The south temperate zone extends from the Tropic of Capricorn at about 23.5 degrees south latitude to the Antarctic Circle at about 66.5 degrees south latitude.
- Frigid Zone
The north and south frigid zones (also known as the Arctic and the Antarctic) lie near the poles.
