Zorluk: KolayClimate Types and Characteristics of Africa

Africa exhibits a notable symmetrical pattern in its climatic zones extending both northward and southward from the equator. Which climatic zone lies directly adjacent to the central Equatorial climate belt?

  1. A
    Mediterranean climate
  2. Tropical Continental (Savanna) climateCevap
  3. C
    Desert (Arid) climate
  4. D
    Barometric pressure zone

Cevap

Tropical Continental (Savanna) climate
Because Africa is bisected almost equally by the equator, its climatic belts repeat in a near-mirrored latitudinal sequence. Directly bordering the central Equatorial climate belt to both the north and south is the Tropical Continental (Savanna) climate zone.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the central climatic zone of Africa
The equator passes near the center of Africa, making the Equatorial climate the central belt.
Climate zones in Africa radiate symmetrically north and south from the equator.
2
Determine the sequence of climate belts moving away from the equator
Moving outward from the Equatorial belt in both directions leads directly into the Tropical Continental (Savanna) climate belt, followed by Tropical Deserts, and finally Mediterranean climates at the coastlines.
Latitude and pressure belts dictate a mirrored climatic progression across the continent.
