To determine the correct answers to these questions about Western Europe's climate regions, we need to understand the climate patterns in different parts of the region. Here's how you can find the answers:
17. Which region of Western Europe experiences an Arctic climate?
- Option A: The Iberian Peninsula includes Spain and Portugal. The Iberian Peninsula does not typically experience an Arctic climate.
- Option B: Italy and Greece are located further south compared to the other options, so they are less likely to have an Arctic climate.
- Option C: The British Isles, including the United Kingdom and Ireland, have a temperate maritime climate but not an Arctic climate.
- Option D: Northern Scandinavia, which consists of countries like Norway, Sweden, and Finland, is known for its Arctic climate with extremely cold temperatures. This option, Northern Scandinavia, is therefore the correct answer.
18. In Western Europe, the land closest to the Mediterranean Sea experiences what type of climate?
- Option A: Wet winters and dry summers is a common climate pattern in the Mediterranean region because of the Mediterranean Sea's influence. This option is correct.
- Option B: Wet summers and dry winters are not typically experienced in the Mediterranean region.
- Option C: Arctic temperatures throughout the year are not found in the Mediterranean region.
- Option D: Desert-like conditions throughout the year are more characteristic of arid regions, not the Mediterranean region.
So, the correct answers are:
17. D. Northern Scandinavia
18. A. Wet winters and dry summers
