DIRECTIONS: Read each question carefully. Choose the letter of the best answer.

1. Which of these best described climate?

a. consists of long-term changes in the atmosphere c. depends on the location.

b. consists of short-term changes in the atmosphere. d. depends on the distance on the

equator.

DISCUSSION

In the Philippines, you know you cannot grow an apple in your backyard. Apples are winter fruits
that mainly grow in other countries with relatively cool climates and locations far away from the
equator. It may not be obvious that a cabbage grows in Baguio City but not in Caloocan City because
it needs plenty of water and a cold rest period. They will not survive in very hot temperature because
they cannot tolerate the months of very hot weather. Apples and cabbages, like other plants and
animals, vary in their adaptations to temperature, rainfall, and other environmental conditions.

In the atmosphere, several environmental factors combine to produce weather and climate.
Weather is the day-to-day condition of Earth’s atmosphere at a particular time and place. The climate,
on the other hand, refers to the overall weather conditions over a long period of time. Variation in
climate is caused by the interplay of many factors, including the amount of solar energy received from
the sun depending on the latitude, the transport of heat by winds and ocean currents, distance from
bodies of water, and the amount of precipitation that results. The shape and elevation of land masses
also contribute to global climate patterns.

CHECK YOUR UNDERSTANDING

DIRECTIONS: Select the correct word/ item that completes the statements.

1. (Climate, Weather) is an overall atmospheric condition of a place of 30 years

and more while (Climate, Weather) is a condition for a short period of time.

2. (Climate, Weather) is influenced by latitude, altitude, ocean current, and

topography.

3. The (higher, lower) the altitude, the (colder, warmer) the climate.

4. (Windward, Leeward) area of the mountain forms precipitation while (Windward,

Leeward) gives dry air and warm weather.
