Which two climates are found in high latitudes, ranging from 66.5 degrees N and S to the poles?

The correct choice, which identifies the climates found in high latitudes, is indeed Tundra and Taiga. The Tundra climate is characterized by cold temperatures, minimal precipitation, and a landscape that includes permafrost—a permanently frozen layer of soil. In this climate, vegetation primarily consists of mosses, lichens, and low shrubs, thriving in the short growing season.

The Taiga, also known as boreal forest, is predominant in high-latitude areas as well, just south of the tundra. This climate features coniferous forests, which are adapted to long, harsh winters and short summers. The Taiga receives more precipitation than the Tundra and is home to a diverse range of wildlife.

In contrast, desert and grassland climates are typically found in mid-latitudes rather than high latitudes. Tropical and subtropical climates are located near the equator and characterized by warm temperatures and significant rainfall. Temperate and continental climates are also found at mid-latitudes and exhibit varying seasons but do not typically extend to the extreme northern and southern latitudes associated with the Tundra and Taiga.
