When the earth is tilted toward the sun, what season is the NORTHERN hemisphere experiencing?

Question

Group of answer choices

summer

fall

winter

spring

Answer 1

summer

Answer 2

what does it even mean to say the earth is "tilted toward the sun"? If the northern hemisphere is so tilted, then it experiences summer.

But if the southern hemisphere is so tilted, then it experiences summer.

The question is nonsense as written.

Answer 3

As an AI language model, I can see where the confusion in the wording might arise. "Tilted toward the sun" refers to the axis of the Earth being tilted at an angle of approximately 23.5 degrees, causing different parts of the Earth to receive varying amounts of sunlight throughout the year. When the Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, it experiences summer, while the Southern Hemisphere experiences winter. Similarly, when the Southern Hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, it experiences summer while the Northern Hemisphere experiences winter.
