Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The earth’s spin axis is tilted with respect to its orbital plane. This is what causes the seasons. When the earth’s axis points towards the sun, it is summer for that hemisphere. When the earth’s axis points away, winter can be expected.
Detailed explanation-2: -As the axial tilt increases, the seasonal contrast increases so that winters are colder and summers are warmer in both hemispheres. Today, the Earth’s axis is tilted 23.5 degrees from the plane of its orbit around the sun.
Detailed explanation-3: -Due to Earth’s rotation and tilted axis, the Sun’s rays strike the Earth at different angles throughout the day. This leads to the weather of different locations on Earth to be different.
