Introduction to Gr10 Geography

How does latitude influence temperature?

• By influencing the amount of precipitation in a region

• By determining the length of the day in a particular area

• By affecting the angle at which the sun's rays strike the Earth's surface.

• By affecting the altitude of a location

Explain the relationship between altitude and temperature.

• Temperature and altitude are not related.

• Temperature decreases with increasing altitude.

• Temperature increases with increasing altitude.

• Altitude has no effect on temperature.

What role do ocean currents play in affecting temperature?

• Ocean currents cause extreme temperature fluctuations in the surrounding areas

• Ocean currents have no impact on temperature

• Ocean currents only affect the temperature of the water, not the surrounding areas

• Ocean currents can transport warm or cold water from one place to another, affecting the temperature of the surrounding areas.

Describe the impact of warm ocean currents on the temperature of coastal areas.

• Warm ocean currents can increase the temperature of coastal areas.

• Warm ocean currents only impact the temperature of inland areas.

• Warm ocean currents can decrease the temperature of coastal areas.

• Warm ocean currents have no impact on the temperature of coastal areas.

Why do high-altitude areas experience lower temperatures?

• Presence of more trees and vegetation

• Decrease in air pressure and thinner atmosphere

• Higher humidity levels and more cloud cover

• Increase in air pressure and thicker atmosphere

Places close to the coast have more extreme temperatures while places further inland have more moderate temperatures.

• True

• False

Which factor causes Ocean currents?

• water temperature differences

• air pressure changes

• all of the above

• Earth's rotation

The Third Layer Of The Atmosphere Is ___

A mixture of gases that surround the planet or moon

• Air pressure

• Thermosphere

• Lithosphere

• Atmosphere
