B
random places
C

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Climate is the long-term pattern of weather in a particular area. Weather can change from hour-to-hour, day-to-day, month-to-month or even year-to-year. A region’s weather patterns, usually tracked for at least 30 years, are considered its climate. Different parts of the world have different climates.

Detailed explanation-2: -There is a relationship between latitude and temperature around the world, as temperatures are typically warmer approaching the Equator and cooler approaching the Poles. There are variations, though, as other factors such as elevation, ocean currents, and precipitation affect climate patterns.

Detailed explanation-3: -The next type of climate zone is temperate. Looking at Koppen’s Climate Classification System, temperate and mild are separate climate zones. However, they are quite similar to one another and are often clumped together. Temperate climate zones are also called cold or continental climate regions.
