question #9
what global winds influence the temperatures in the temperate zone?
a equatorial winds
b polar winds
c trade winds
d westerly winds
The temperate zone lies between 30° and 60° latitude. Westerly winds blow from west to east in this latitudinal range, moving air masses that directly influence the zone's temperatures. Equatorial winds stay near the equator, polar winds are confined to high polar latitudes, and trade winds operate between the equator and 30° latitude, so they do not affect the temperate zone's temperatures.
