a solstice and a equinox
One gets more sunlight than the other.
The areas of sunlight in the two hemispheres change throughout the year due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. During the summer solstice, one hemisphere receives more direct sunlight and experiences longer days, while the other hemisphere receives less direct sunlight and has shorter days. This pattern reverses during the winter solstice.
The northern and southern hemispheres get exactly equal hours of sunlight. In the course of a year, it amounts to exactly 50% of the year everywhere. It's just that the long days, long nights, short days, and short nights happen at different times in the two hemispheres. But it all evens out over a year.
Yes because its curvature. Sunlight spreads over different areas causing it to be less effective near the poles.

In a yard with trees, areas of sunshine are influenced by the position and height of the trees, as well as the sun's path throughout the day and seasons. During the day, sunlight creates shifting patterns of light and shadow, with areas closest to the trees receiving less direct sunlight, especially on the north side (in the Northern Hemisphere). Additionally, as seasons change, the angle of the sun alters, affecting the duration and intensity of sunlight in different parts of the yard. This results in a dynamic interplay of sunny and shaded areas that varies over time.
Yes, a dog's fur can change color over time due to factors such as aging, exposure to sunlight, and genetics.

The amount of sunlight reaching the northern and southern hemispheres varies throughout the year due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. During the summer solstice, the northern hemisphere receives more direct sunlight, while the southern hemisphere experiences winter. Conversely, during the winter solstice, the southern hemisphere enjoys more direct sunlight, with the northern hemisphere in winter. Overall, the distribution of light is not uniform and changes seasonally, but on average, both hemispheres receive roughly equal amounts of sunlight over the course of a year.
The latitude of an area on Earth affects the amount of sunlight it receives because it determines the angle at which sunlight hits the surface. Areas closer to the equator receive more direct sunlight as the sun is overhead, leading to warmer temperatures. In contrast, areas closer to the poles receive sunlight at a lower angle, spreading the energy over a larger area and resulting in colder temperatures.
A dog's fur changes color over time due to a combination of genetics, aging, and exposure to sunlight. As dogs age, their fur may lighten or darken naturally. Additionally, exposure to sunlight can cause fur to fade or change color.
Polyurethane turns yellow over time due to a process called oxidation, where exposure to light and air causes the molecules in the polyurethane to break down and change color. This yellowing effect is more noticeable in areas with high levels of sunlight or artificial light.
