Question

Match the zone to its characteristics. 1- intertropical convergence zone

2- horse latitudes
3-subpolar low
a- lies along the subtropical jet stream
b- lies roughly along the equator
c- connects the polar cell and the Ferrel cell

Answer 1

Intertropical Convergence Zone - Lies roughly along the equator.
Horse Low - Lies along the subtropical jet stream.
Subpolar Low - Connects the polar cell and the Ferrel cell

Answer 2

1- intertropical convergence zone -- b- lies roughly along the equator.

2- horse latitudes -- a- lies along the subtropical jet stream.

3-subpolar low -- c- connects the polar cell and the Ferrel cell.

Step-by-step explanation:

• The ITCZ zone s located at or near the equator or the zero degrees latitude and is thus known for its low wind properties and is characterized by the development of Hadley cells that forms convection currents.

• While the horst latitude is located somewhere in the mid tropics i.e 30 degrees and thus lies along the subtropical jet streams and develops over both northern and southern hemispheres.

• The subpolar low is located between the polar cell and the Ferrel cells. Located at an altitude of 30 to 60 degrees.
