1 .		Continental climates tend to be much less extreme than marine climates.   True  False
2 .		In general, the smaller the mean annual rainfall, the greater its variability.   True  False
3 .		Low-latitude deserts are controlled by the subsiding air masses of the equatorial lows.   True  False
4 .		The humid continental climate is confined to central and eastern North America and Eurasia in the latitude range 40 to 50°N.   True  False
5 .		Tropical wet and dry climates are characterized by wet summers followed by dry winters.   True  False
6 .		Because topographic variations are pronounced in mountains, every change in slope with respect to the Sun's rays produces a different microclimate.   True  False
7 .		The moderating influence of water is much more pronounced along the windward side of a continent.   True  False
8 .		The tropical rain forest consists of relatively few species of trees.   True  False
9 .		In the wet tropics, daily temperature variations greatly exceed seasonal differences.   True  False
10 .		Humidity and cloud cover are key elements in determining the temperature in the desert environment.   True  False
11 .		Although polar climates are classified as humid, precipitation is generally meager, with nonmarine stations receiving less than 25 centimeters (10 inches) annually.   True  False
