1

increased drought conditions

decreased solar energy

increased precipitation

decreased erosion of the shoreline

explain how elevation, latitude, wind systems, ocean currents, position on a continent, and mountain barriers influence temperature, precipitation, and distribution of climate regions;

1

The water cycle would NOT occur if which of the following were missing?

plants

animals

ice caps

solar energy

explain how elevation, latitude, wind systems, ocean currents, position on a continent, and mountain barriers influence temperature, precipitation, and distribution of climate regions;

1

Evaporation, Condensation and precipitation are all processes which occur in the __________________

nitrogen cycle

carbon cycle

energy cycle

water cycle

explain how elevation, latitude, wind systems, ocean currents, position on a continent, and mountain barriers influence temperature, precipitation, and distribution of climate regions;

1

Which two factors have the greatest effect on climate?

mountain barriers and amount of arable land

latitude and distance from water

longitude and vegetation

soil type and altitude

explain how elevation, latitude, wind systems, ocean currents, position on a continent, and mountain barriers influence temperature, precipitation, and distribution of climate regions;

1

How do mountain barriers affect precipitation levels?

mountain lakes are produced when heavy precipitation forces glaciers to retreat

deserts are formed because mountains cause prevailing winds to lose moisture

farmlands are supported by moist air being forced over mountains, causing rain

monsoon winds are redirected by mountains, resulting in heavy rains

explain how elevation, latitude, wind systems, ocean currents, position on a continent, and mountain barriers influence temperature, precipitation, and distribution of climate regions;
