Which statement best explains the difference between weather and climate? the weather of an area is the same as its climate. the weather is the climate of an area over a period of time. the climate of an area depends on the weather. the climate is the weather patterns over a long period of time

Your answer would be the climate is the weather patterns over a long period of time.

Climate is exactly that, the weather patterns over a long period of time, while the weather is the, well, weather in that moment.

For example, if you were to say, it's always sunny and hot here, that's talking about climate, while saying, it's so hot today, would be talking about weather.

Hope this helped!
