Answer:

The five main latitude regions of Earth's surface comprise geographical zones,[1] divided by the major circles of latitude. The differences between them relate to climate. They are as follows:

The North Frigid Zone, between the North Pole at 90° N and the Arctic Circle at 66°33′48.7" N, covers 4.12% of Earth's surface.

The North Temperate Zone, between the Arctic Circle at 66°33′48.7" N and the Tropic of Cancer at 23°26'11.3" N, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.

The Torrid Zone, between the Tropic of Cancer at 23°26'11.3" N and the Tropic of Capricorn at 23°26'11.3" S, covers 39.78% of Earth's surface.

The South Temperate Zone, between the Tropic of Capricorn at 23°26'11.3" S and the Antarctic Circle at 66°33'48.7" S, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.

The South Frigid Zone, from the Antarctic Circle at 66°33'48.7" S and the South Pole at 90° S, covers 4.12% of Earth's surface

Answer:

The Earth is divided into three heat zones: the Frigid Zone, the Temperate Zone and the Torrid Zone. The Torrid Zone is the closest to the equator and is the hottest of the three zones. The Temperate Zone is split into two zones on either size of the Torrid Zone, and has temperatures ranging from warm to cool. The Frigid Zone is also split into two, one over the North Pole and one over the South Pole. The Frigid Zone is the coldest of the three zones and has both midnight sun and polar night for part of the year.

Explanation:

Frigid Zone : It rays are always slanting and provide less heat. Therefore it is called Frigid Zones.

Temperate Zone: Thr angle of the sun's rays goes on decreasing towards the poles. As of such, the areas bounded by the Tropic of Cancer and the Arctic Circle in the Northern Hemisphere,and the Tropic of Capricorn and the Antarctic Circle in the Southern Hemisphere,have moderate temperatures.These are, therefore, called Temperate Zones.

The mid day sun is exactly overhead at least once a year on all latitudes in between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capicorn. This area, therefore,receives the maximum heat and is called the Torrid Zone.
