Question

the region of earth known as the tropics has the tropic of cancer (about 23.5° n latitude) and the tropic of capricorn (about 23.5° s latitude) as boundaries. a tropical rain forest is most likely to be found at latitude.
18°s
25°n
67°s
90°n

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Tropical rain forests are located within the tropics. The Tropic of Cancer is at about \(23.5^{\circ}\text{ N}\) and the Tropic of Capricorn is at about \(23.5^{\circ}\text{ S}\). So, the latitude of a tropical rain forest should be between \(- 23.5^{\circ}\) and \(23.5^{\circ}\). Among the given options, \(18^{\circ}\text{ S}\) lies within this range. \(25^{\circ}\text{ N}\) is outside the tropics (as \(25>23.5\)), \(67^{\circ}\text{ S}\) is in the Antarctic region (far from the tropics), and \(90^{\circ}\text{ N}\) is the North Pole (far from the tropics).

Answer:

\(18^{\circ}\text{ S}\)
