They are related to seasons because of the tilt. When the Earth tilts the sun faces the Southern Hemisphere so since the nothern hemisphere has no light we have summer in the southern, but when the sun moves in to the northern hemisphere we have winter.
No, the solstices and equinoxes mark the beginnings of the four seasons.
" seasons are the manifestation of solsticesand equinoxesand are markers of the seasons
The equinoxes and solstices are the first days of seasons. On the equinoxes, night and day is the same length. On the solstices, the day is either the longest or the shortest day of the year, depending on which solstice it is and which hemisphere you are in,
Solstices and Equinoxes are points in the orbit of the Earth around the sun, hence directly related to seasons
The two seasons that begin with solstices rather than equinoxes are summer and winter.

The two equinoxes.
There are two solstices. they are the summer solstice (first day of summer), and the winter solstices (first day of winter An equinox is when day and night are the same length. like solstices, there are two of them. The Autumn equinox (first day of autumn), and then the spring equinox (first day of spring).
equinoxes
Yes. If we did not insert the leap day during leap year, the calendar date of the equinoxes and solstices would change and eventually come at very different times in the calendar year. The whole purpose of Leap Year/Leap Day is to keep our calendar aligned with the equinoxes, solstices, and seasons in general.
91 and a fraction days. The dividing points are the two solstices and two equinoxes. You can see the precise dates of the equinoxes and solstices on the "Earth's Seasons" web site at the US Naval Observatory, at the link below.
The revolution of the Earth around the sun causes the changing seasons and the positions of the solstices and equinoxes. The solstices occur when the Earth's axis is tilted most toward or away from the sun, leading to the longest and shortest days of the year. The equinoxes occur when the tilt is at a right angle to the sun, resulting in day and night being of nearly equal length.
