30 Exit Question: How do you plan to study I.N. pages 28, 29 and 30 this weekend?

31 The Equator goes through Africa and impacts the climate Elevation affects Africa's climate -Tropical climate -Direct sunlight year round = hot and humid -Higher elevation = colder -Example: Mt. Kilimanjaro is near Equator but so high that it is snow covered all year Rain forests in Africa support many life forms The most common vegetation in Africa Cacao beans can be planted and sold - Many organisms (plants and animals) live there -Grasslands with a few medium sized trees -Many large animals (lions and elephants) live here Africa has multiple deserts The bite of the Tetse Fly causes a disease called Sleeping Sickness -Sahara in north is size of U.S. and Kalahari in South -Hot and dry -Kills cattle and harms humans -Researchers are looking for cures Mosquitoes spread a disease called Malaria -Affects most of Africa below Sahara -Mosquitoes live in warm and wet areas -Can be fatal if untreated

32 Impacts on Climate -Distance from Equator -Countries closest to Equator -How does it impact life? -Elevation -Kenya and Somalia on political map of Africa -How does elevation influence their climates? Rain Forests a. Rains Often b. Home to many types of trees,plants (Cacao) and animals ( Gorillas, Chimpanzees) c. Covers about 20% of Africa Tropical Savanna a. Most common vegetation region b.tall grass, bushes, trees c. Lions, Zebras d. Two seasons wet and dry Deserts a. Sahara, Kalahari b. Hot and dry Climate and Health -Sleeping Sickness -What is it? -How is it prevented? -Malaria -What is it? -How is it prevented?
