Ms. Dealy’s example, using Ch. 2-1 vocabulary terms: Word & concept map Ms. Dealy’s example, using Ch. 2-1 vocabulary terms: Highest and lowest point the sun can directly shine Tropic of Cancer is at 23 ½° N Earth’s axis is tilted 23 ½° Tropic of Capricorn is at 23 ½° S Between the polar zones and the tropics is called the middle latitudes or temperate zone Earth rotates around its axis. In between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn is called the tropics, also called the low latitudes Causes night and day Earth revolves, or orbits around the sun, causing seasons in the temperate zones. North of the Tropic of Cancer and South of the Tropic of Capricorn are called the high latitudes, or polar zones. They receive NO direct sunlight ever. 66 ½°N is the Arctic Circle. 66 ½°S is the Antarctic Circle.
