What is the equator
An imaginary line that divides the northern and southern hemispheres. Places near the equator are warm while places farther north or south get colder.
How does near by water affect the climate of some regions or provinces in Canada?
The Hudson's Bay is very cold and this cools the temperature of the areas around it such as Quebec, Ontario, and Manitoba.
What is Latitude?
The latitude of a region is dependent on how far North or South a region or country is in relation to the equator?
Why is the water in the great lakes so warm?
Through ocean currents, it carries warm water to the great lakes.
Why does temperature decrease as you increase in elevation?
There is less air pressure and this spreads the air particles out and making the air thinner.
