Question

Why do the stars and the constellations in the sky appear to change positions throughout the night and throughout the year?(1 point) Responses The stars and constellation have tilted and are also moving in space. The stars and constellation have tilted and are also moving in space. The Earth’s tilt changes its position relative to the stars and constellations as the Earth rotates and orbits. The Earth’s tilt changes its position relative to the stars and constellations as the Earth rotates and orbits. The location angle of the Earth's tilt relative to the stars and constellations remains the same throughout the year. The location angle of the Earth's tilt relative to the stars and constellations remains the same throughout the year. The Earth’s tilt changes its position relative to the stars and constellations only because the Earth rotates around its axis.

Answer 1

The correct response is: The Earth’s tilt changes its position relative to the stars and constellations as the Earth rotates and orbits.

This is because the rotation of the Earth causes the stars and constellations to appear to move across the sky during the night. Additionally, as the Earth orbits the Sun throughout the year, the angle and position of the Earth's tilt change, which in turn affects the visibility of different stars and constellations at various times of the year.
