Which statements describe the influence of latitude on temperature? check all that apply. latitude determines the duration of daylight. latitude creates polar and temperate zones. latitude prevents extreme heat and cold in coastal regions. latitude causes areas to experience cooler air at high elevations. latitude influences the movement of warm and cool air over land.

The correct answers are:  

•Latitude determines the duration of daylight.  

•Latitude creates polar and temperate zones.  

•Latitude influences the movement of warm and cool air over land.

Latitude is defined as the distance of a place on the earth surface from the equator. So, from the poles to the Equator the amount of sunlight changes in (decreases from season to season). Different latitudes receive different amounts of sunlight, so higher latitudes receive less heat than lower latitude areas (nearer the equator). Also, the angle at which the sun's rays strike the earth's surface is dependent on latitude.
