Which of the following does not influence the climate of a place?

  1. Pressure Cells

  2. Elevation

  3. Animal Habitats

  4. Latitude

The correct answer is: Animal Habitats

Animal habitats do not directly influence the climate of a place. Climate is primarily determined by factors such as pressure cells, which affect weather patterns and precipitation; elevation, which influences temperature and atmospheric conditions; and latitude, which dictates the amount of sunlight received and seasonal variations. While animal habitats can be affected by climate, they are a result of climatic conditions rather than a contributing factor.
