Question
which of the following would most likely be the characteristics of a chapparal?
cold weather and location in low latitudes
high temperatures and location in high latitudes
hotter temperatures and location near low latitudes
moderate temperatures and location in mid to high latitudes
Chaparral is a biome. Biomes are influenced by temperature and latitude. Low latitudes (near the equator) generally have warmer temperatures. Chaparral has hot, dry summers (hotter temperatures). It is often found in regions near low latitudes (e.g., coastal areas of California which is at a relatively low latitude compared to some other regions in higher latitudes). Cold weather is not characteristic (so first option wrong). High latitudes (far from equator) tend to be colder (so second and fourth options wrong as high latitudes don't match with the typical temperature of chaparral which is hotter. Moderate temperatures are more of temperate biomes.
