Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Vertical zonation refers to the arrangement of different biomes or vegetation types in relation to altitude. As altitude increases, temperature and precipitation levels change, leading to the development of different vegetation zones or biomes. For example, as you move up a mountain, you might encounter a forest biome at the base, followed by a grassland or shrubland biome, then a tundra biome and finally a snow and ice biome. Therefore, different biomes occur at different altitudes, not longitudes or seasons, or right ascensions and declinations.
