How does latitude affect climate? OA. As latitude increases, air molecules become less densely packed and air pressure decreases. B. It determines whether winds will blow inland bringing moist air, or towards the ocean bringing dry air. OC. It determines how much solar energy an area receives and thus how hot it will be. D. It determines the time zones. Reset Selection Elevation is: A. Distance of a location from the equator. OB. The average weather over a period of 30 years. OC. The features of the surface and how bodies of water flow across the surface. OD. Distance of a location from sea level.
