INTERESTING FACT

Mount Everest is in the Himalayas

range in Asia. It is the highest

mountain in the world

It is found in the highest mountain ranges. Himalayas in Asia, the Andes in South

America and Alps and Pirinees in Europe.

In temperate zones mountains are not populated, people live in valleys.In hot zones mountains are densely

populated because of the lower temperature.

Vegetation Changes from a part of a mountain to another.

Changes with altitude because of the different temperature.

There is less vegetation in windy places.

The vegatation in sunny slopes is different from the shady slopes.
