Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following latitudes experiences the least variation in day length throughout the year?
  • Step 1: Understand what latitude means. Latitude is a measure of how far north or south you are from the Equator.
  • Step 2: Know that the Equator is at 0 degrees latitude and is the line that divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
  • Step 3: Realize that places near the Equator have almost the same amount of daylight and night time all year round.
  • Step 4: Compare this with places further from the Equator, which experience more variation in day length throughout the seasons.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the Equator has the least variation in day length because it stays close to 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night all year.
