Question
I’m having hard time understanding this question can you please help?
Deserts biomes include plants and animals with highly evolved specializations to
deal with extreme dry conditions. Desert biomes are generally found:
At 30 degrees North and South Latitudes because that is the location where the Hadley
and Ferrel atmospheric cells are ascending.
O At the equator because that is the location with the most intense radiation and warmest
temperatures.
O At 30 degrees North and South Latitudes because that is the location where the Hadley
and Ferrel atmospheric cells are descending.
O At any latitude but only in the interior regions of continents because of the maritime
effect.
