Which of the following statements about latin america’s highland climate region is false? a. it stretches along the western side of the entire region. b. it is considered a polar climate. c. it has extreme temperature variations. d. the amount of precipitation it receives depends on the season.

The correct answer is B. It is considered a polar climate.
 The highland climate region in South America is not considered a polar climate, it has seasons, and the temperatures vary a lot. The temperature gets bellow zero in one part of the year but it is only a seasonal occurrence and it is anything but enough for this climate region to be considered as a polar climate region.
