Question

temperature of a place depends largely on its latitude

Answer 1

yes the temperature depends on altitude, position and distance from sea

Answer 2

Temperature of a place depends largely upon its latitude because places near the equator(o degree) are very hot because here rays of sun are vertical and places near to (23 1/2 degree north and south)tropics
have moderate climate as the rays of sun are neither vertical or slanting and places near (66 1/2 north and south) or arctic circles have extreme cold due to slanting rays of sun.
