True or false:Earth’s distance from the Sun is responsible for the seasons.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -But Earth’s distance from the sun doesn’t change enough to cause seasonal differences. Instead, our seasons change because Earth tilts on its axis, and the angle of tilt causes the Northern and Southern Hemispheres to trade places throughout the year in receiving the sun’s light and warmth most directly.

Detailed explanation-2: -Thus due to the revolution of the Earth around the Sun, different seasons are observed on the planet. So, the correct answer is Option B. Note: The main reason for having different seasons is that the axis of the earth and when it is closer and away from the Sun during the revolution we have different seasons.

Detailed explanation-3: -Earth’s distance from the sun does change throughout the year, and it’s logical to assume that an increase or decrease in a sun-planet distance could cause a cyclical change in the seasons. Our seasons change due to our planet’s angle of tilt – 23.5 degrees – relative to our orbit around the sun.
