4. Which statement about pressure systems and climate is correct?

1 point
All regions of the earth get the same amount of Low and High pressure systems resulting in a roughly even distribution of storms and sunny days..
Regions of the earth are more likely to have Low Pressure or High Pressure systems and this influences how much precipitation the region gets.
High Pressure systems only happen at the poles, while Low Pressure Systems happen at the equator.
Low Pressure systems only happen at the poles, while High Pressure Systems happen at the equator.

The correct statement is:

Regions of the earth are more likely to have Low Pressure or High Pressure systems and this influences how much precipitation the region gets.

This statement accurately reflects the influence of pressure systems on climate, as different areas of the Earth experience varying frequencies of low and high pressure systems, which in turn affect their precipitation patterns and overall climate.
