Question

Talking about “direct” and “indirect” sunlight is a way of describing
A
the heat of the sun.

B
the angle of the sun’s rays.

C
the Earth’s distance from the sun.

D
the changing tilt of the Earth’s axis.

Answer 1

The correct answer is **B: the angle of the sun’s rays.**

Direct sunlight refers to sunlight that strikes the Earth’s surface at a steep angle, effectively delivering more energy and heat. Indirect sunlight comes from rays that hit the Earth at a shallower angle, resulting in lower intensity and heat.
