IDENTIFICATION
12. This is the area north of equator; an area with no wind or light variable winds
just north of the equator in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, situated between the
trade winds
13. These climates are located within 30° above and below the Equator and are
the warmest all the year
14. These climates are located between 30° and 65° latitude and variety of
weather is produced
15. Close to the poles the sun is not seen during the winter for as
long as six months and this region has less precipitation
16. A type of climate of the Philippines that has two pronounced
seasons: dry from November to April and wet during the rest of the
year
17. A type of climate of the Philippines that has no dry season; with a
very pronounced maximum rain period from November to April.
18. A type of climate of the Philippines where seasons are not very
pronounced; relatively dry from November to April and wet during
the rest of the year.
19. A type of climate of the Philippines where rainfall are more or
less evenly distributed throughout the year.
20. The side of the mountain that has little rain
21. The side of the mountain that has no rain
22. It is called as the height above sea level
23. The vertical lines in the globe
24. The horizontal lines in the globe
TRUE OR FALSE
25. The presence of land and water masses affect the climate of a
place
26. Regions in the traders and low latitude are mostly dry while
those in the prevailing easterlies have moderate rainfall all year.
27. Seasonal winds, called monsoons may bring rainy weather
during some months and dry weather in other months
28. When warm moist wind strike the windward side of a mountain
and rise, there will be much rainfall on that side
29. Toward the pole, the daylights are long in winter while in
summer, nights are long.
30. The lower the latitude, the colder the climate; the higher the
latitude, the warmer the climate.
31. Baguio City has lower average temperature and colder climate
than the surrounding area because of its low altitude
32. The longitude of an area is its distance from the equator
33. The Earth rotates in a clockwise direction.
34. Regions near the equator have low latitude while regions near
the poles have high latitude.
