Question

which locations are typically the warmest on earth? those closest to the poles those closest to the equator those closest to oceans

Explanation:

The equator receives direct sunlight year - round, leading to more concentrated solar energy and higher temperatures. Locations near the poles get slanted sunlight, resulting in lower temperatures. Proximity to oceans mainly affects climate stability (moderating temperatures) rather than making an area the warmest overall. So the warmest locations are typically closest to the equator.

Answer:

those closest to the equator
