Is the earths axis perpendicular to the equator?
Mercury
Why does earths surface bulge at the equator?
Because the Earth is spinning - at about 1000 miles per hour at the equator.
What changes in the earth orbit and the tilt of the earths axis cause ice ages?
Climate
Does the distance from the equator usually affect the climate of a place?
the farther a place is from the equator, the less directly the sun hits it, because the earth's axis is tilted. this varying amount of sunlight affects the climate.
What would be the effect on the Earth if the axis were not tilted?
There would be no four seasons if the earths axis was not titled.

Why does the equator go sideways?
The tilt of earths axis makes the equator appear to be sideways.

What is jamicas climate?
it is very, very, very hot because it is right by earths axis.

Climate
Is the north end of Earths axis tilted away from the sun during an equinox?
No. The Earth's axis is directly overhead at the Equator, therefore the axis isn't north or south on the Equinox.

In what way does the equator affect the climate of a place?
because of the earths axis, different parts of the globe get hit by sunlight more directly then others. The equater gets hit most directly so it is the warmest. The farther away from the equater you are, the less directly the sun hits you.
What effects climate the most?
Climate is effected most by longitude. Longitude (up and down axis of earth) determines how far or close an area is the equator, measuring at 0 degrees Fahrenheit. The closer an area is to the equator the lower the temperature. The farther an area is from the equator, the higher the temperature.
