Respuesta :

Answer:

b

Explanation:

ANSWER:

Temperature differences due to elevation changes would best account for a rain forest which is found at the base of Mt. Kilimanjaro and the summit is snow capped

EXPLANATION:

  • At the top of the mountain or the summit, the elevation is high and the temperature remains cold almost all the time. This is why snow is found at the peak.
  • On the other hand, at the base of the mountain or the foothills, the temperature is such that it allows plants and animals to thrive and survive.
  • The foothills also receive enough rainfall for plants to grow into big trees and therefore rain forests are found at the base of the mountain.
