C the Earth's distance from the sun
In many parts of the world, it is cold in the winter and hot in the summer. But what causes these seasonal changes? The answer lies in the tilt of the Earth's axis and Earth's constant orbit around the sun.
The imaginary line that runs through the center of the Earth is called its axis. This is the line around which the Earth rotates, making one complete turn every day. But this line does not run straight up and down. Instead, it's tilted at about 23,5 degrees. This tilt is crucial in cresting seasonal change. It means that while half the Earth is pointed at the sun, the other half is pointed away
Which of these does not cause seasonal change?
A the tilt of the Earth's axis
B the Earth's orbit around the sun
C the Earth's distance from the sun
D which side of the Earth is tilted toward the sun
