Explanation:

• Ushuaia is the farthest from the equator. Latitude measures the distance north or south of the equator. The farther a place is from the equator (higher latitude), the less intense the sunlight it receives. This is because the sun's rays hit the Earth at a more oblique angle at higher latitudes.
• Since Ushuaia has the highest latitude among the three cities, it receives the least - intense sunlight.
• Places with less - intense sunlight (higher latitudes) tend to have cooler climates.

Ushuaia; highest; least; coolest
