Definición

  • From the polar regions to the temperate zones to the tropics, there are different climate zones that create different habitats. Within the tropics, temperate regions, and polar areas, there are varying amounts of sunlight, water, temperatures, and soil conditions that are the product of proximity to large bodies of water, lack of rainfall, and the elevations in specific areas.
