The heat zones of the Earth are: the Torrid Zone, the Temperate Zones and the Frigid Zones. On the basis of the distribution of temperature  earth is divided  into the following  heat zones, 

  • Torrid zone: It extends on both side of the equator and is bounded by the Tropic of Cancer and Capricorn. That is between 23 degrees half minute  North and 23 degree half minute South latitudes. 
  • Temperate zone: It extends in one each of the two hemispheres.  They lie between the Tropic of Cancer and Arctic Circle in the northern and between Tropic of Capricorn and Arctic Circle in the southern hemisphere. That is between 23 degrees half minute North to 66 degrees half minute North and 23 degrees half minute South and 66 degrees half minute South latitudes. 
  • Frigid zone: It extends in two hemispheres.  The fried zone in Northern hemisphere lies between Arctic Circle and the North Pole and in the southern hemisphere between Antarctic circle and South pole.
