Question
4 of 10 the factor that generally has the greatest effect on determining a regions climate is its a abundant plant species b longitude (east and west) c latitude (north and south) d closeness to a river
Latitude has a major impact on climate as it determines the amount of solar radiation a region receives. Higher latitudes are colder due to the angle of sunlight, while lower latitudes are warmer. Longitude has less direct impact on climate compared to latitude. Proximity to a river affects local - scale water availability and micro - climate but not as much as latitude on a regional climate scale. Abundant plant species are a result of climate rather than a determinant of it.
