Answer:
The areas in light yellow color have a semiarid climate.
Step-by-step explanation:
The region that is shown on the map is Southwest Asia, often referred to as the Middle East. This region is one of the driest in the world, and the three dominant climate types are the Mediterranean, arid/desert, and semiarid/steppe. The semiarid climate type on this map is colored with light yellow, and as we can see it is the climate type that occupies the second largest territory in this region after the arid climate type.
The semiarid climate type, or steppe, is a climate type that is characterized by small amounts of precipitation which tend to occur in a small and limited part of the year, while the rest of the year is dry. Depending on which part of the region it is, the summers and winters are hot, or the summers are hot while winters are very cold. The landscape is dominated by short grasses and plants that are highly specialized for living in dry conditions.
