Question

the map below shows the locations of three cities in south america.
complete the paragraph to explain how distance from the equator affects climate.
of these three south american cities,
is the farthest from the equator
and so has the
latitude. on average, the sunlight this city receives is the
intense. based on its latitude, this city is likely to have the
climate.

Explanation:

1. First blank (farthest from equator): Among Ushuaia, Montevideo, and Recife, Ushuaia is at the highest southern latitude (closest to 60°S), so it's the farthest from the equator (0°).
2. Second blank (latitude type): Higher latitude (since Ushuaia is far from equator, it has a high latitude).
3. Third blank (sunlight intensity): Lower - as latitude increases (farther from equator), sunlight is spread over a larger area, so intensity is less.
4. Fourth blank (climate): Coldest - lower sunlight intensity and higher latitude lead to colder climate.

Answer:

First blank: Ushuaia
Second blank: highest
Third blank: least
Fourth blank: coldest
