Verified by Experts

The correct answer is:

ltitude (height above sea level) and latitude (distance from the equator) strongly affect climate conditions.

Temperature : Decreases with increase in altitude and also varies with latitude.

Rainfall : Changes due to altitude (orographic rainfall) and latitude-based wind patterns.

Vegetation : Depends on climate, so it changes with both altitude and latitude.

Species diversity : Varies because it depends on temperature, rainfall, and vegetation.
