What to Focus On

  • The amount of sunlight determines the temperature of a zone.
  • The Torrid Zone is the hottest, the Frigid Zone is the coldest, and the Temperate Zone is in between.

  • Also called the Tropical Zone.
  • Receives direct sunlight.
  • Hot and humid with heavy rainfall in many areas.

  • Has moderate climate.
  • Experiences four seasons.
  • Vegetation includes grasslands, forests, and deserts.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The Equator is hot because it is closer to the Sun than the Poles.
