INDIAN GEOGRAPHY

Detailed explanation-1: -Temperature and moisture are the most important ones. The temperature is determined by the sunlight, and the rainfall determines the moisture. Together they define the type of natural vegetation that grow in a particular area.

Detailed explanation-2: -The factors affecting natural vegetation are the slope of the land, thickness of the soil, moisture, and temperature. Of these, temperature and moisture are considered to be the most important factors. Temperature is determined by the sunlight and moisture is determined by rainfall.

Detailed explanation-3: -Temperature and humidity are the main factors which determine the character and extent of vegetation. E.g. an area with high temperature and high humidity supports evergreen forest, while an area with high temperature and low humidity supports thorny bushes (desert).

Detailed explanation-4: -Plants absorb water and release energy that helps determine the type of climate a particular region experiences. The moisture released into the atmosphere by plants contributes to the climate, while the moisture level in the climate in turn contributes back to the earth’s ability to foster the growth of vegetation.

Detailed explanation-5: -The character and extent of vegetation are mainly determined by temperature along with humidity in the air, precipitation and soil.
