Understand the concept of latitude: Latitude is a geographic coordinate that specifies the north-south position of a point on Earth's surface. It is measured in degrees, with 0° at the equator, 90° at the poles, and values increasing as you move away from the equator.
Learn about Earth's climate zones: The Earth is divided into three main climate zones based on latitude: the tropical zone (near the equator), the temperate zones (mid-latitudes), and the polar zones (near the poles).
Define the temperate zones: Temperate zones are regions that experience moderate temperatures and are located between the tropical and polar zones. These zones are found between 23.5° and 66.5° latitude in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
Eliminate incorrect options: The temperate zones are not found exclusively in the Southern Hemisphere, nor are they located only at the equator (0° latitude) or near the poles (66.5° to 90° latitude).
Conclude the correct range: Based on the definition, temperate zones are typically found between 23.5° and 66.5° latitude in both hemispheres.
