Answer: A

The low-latitude or tropical zone is the belt lying between the Tropic of Cancer (23½° N) and the Tropic of Capricorn (23½° S). It is the only part of the Earth where the Sun can be directly overhead.

The middle latitudes lie between 23½° and 66½° in each hemisphere, and the high latitudes beyond the polar circles.
