The correct answers are as follows:
1. CLIMATE IS THE AVERAGE YEAR TO YEAR CONDITIONS OF WEATHER IN AN AREA.
Climate is generally defined as the weather condition that prevails in a particular region over a long period of time. Climate is usually measured by examining the pattern of variation in several climatic factors such as rainfall, temperature, relative humidity, wind, pressure, etc. While the weather of a place can change within a space of few hours, it takes years for a change in climatic condition to occur.
2. TEMPERATURE AND PRECIPITATION.
There are many factors that affect the climate of a place, but the most important of these factors are temperature and precipitation. The yearly average range of temperature and the average yearly precipitation are key determinant factors of the type of climate that will be found in a particular place.
3. OCEAN CURRENT, MOUNTAINS, ELEVATION AND LATITUDE.
Many factors work together to determine the type of climate that will be found in a place. Some of these factors are ocean current, mountains, elevation and latitude. For instance, latitude, which refers to how far a place is from the equator has significant impact on the climatic condition of a place. Also, mountainous areas are usually colder than non mountainous areas due to higher altitude.
