The equator of the earth receives most of the sun’s rays.

Explanation:  

  • The earth surface is divided into different latitude. The equator is said to be the zero degree latitude. This is because it lies directly over the sun.
  • As a result straight rays of light reach the equator. On the other hand the higher latitudes gets indirect or tangential rays of light.
  • Now as the equator is closer to the earth, the heat is received more by the equator.
  • On the other hand the higher latitude gets lower heat due to more travelling of the rays hence cooler.
