    The amount of sunlight changes when moving between north and south.

    Explanation:

    Climate change results from global warming which is an increase in the temperature of the earth.

    The sun is the primary source of temperature change on earth, and latitude place a great role in the amount of sunshine that come to an area. Places at high latitude receive less sunlight when compared to places at low latitude, this in turn determines how warm or cold a region can be. On the other when moving from east to west, it is along longitudinal lines and this can be on same elevation, thus there are no significant changes in temperature.

    Therefore sunlight plays a key role in altering the temperature along latitudes.
