Earth's Biomes

Question 6 • Grade 8 World Cultures and Geography A

What are the three most important factors that affect the Earth's biomes?

Answer
A
climate, latitude, and elevation
B
latitude, temperature, and longitude
C
elevation, altitude, and latitude
D
rainfall, temperature, and climate

Explanation

Biomes are shaped mainly by climate, especially the patterns of temperature and precipitation. Latitude affects how much solar energy a place receives, while elevation also influences temperature and growing conditions. Choice A names climate, latitude, and elevation; longitude does not directly determine biome type, and choice D lists climate along with two parts of climate rather than three distinct factors.
