No, the auxin produced on the side facing the light source simply moves to the side away from the light. This causes cell elongation on the side opposite the light, making the stem appear to "grow toward the light"

Why the temperatures are lowest in December?

It depends where you are. I would assume you are somwhere in the northern hemisphere since December through March is winter here. It is coldest in December here because the North Pole is facing away from the sun, not because of how far away we are from the sun. Since the top pole is facing away from the Sun at a 23.5 degree tilt than that means the South Pole is facing towards the sun at this time, thus experiencing warm temperatures.


When does day and night happen?

Because the part of the Earth you are on is not facing the Sun at that time. The earth is continuously rotating, so at any time, part of the Earth is facing the Sun and part is facing away from it. The part facing it is getting lots of light, so it is day time and the part facing away gets less light, so you have darkness and it is night time.

How does the UK go dark at night if it is facing the sun because it is summer?

The UK goes dark at night because the Earth rotates. During our daytime, the UK is facing the sun and it is light. The planet is slowly spinning, so the sun appears to move across the sky. In the evening, we begin to lose the light. This is because the UK is moving away from the sun. At night, we are then facing away from the sun. As it gets closer to morning, it starts to get lighter again. This process happens every day, and is how day and night work.

Mr. Small did not move his family after the kitchen was destroyed because he was determined to stand his ground and fight against the racism and prejudice that the family was facing in the House of Dies Drear. He wanted to teach his children to be brave and resilient in the face of adversity. Additionally, moving would have meant giving in to the pressure and intimidation tactics of those who wanted them to leave.

How does the moon position affect the tides of earths ocean?

Wherever the moon is, the mass of water on Earth facing AND opposite of the Moon are pulled outwards because of the Moon's gravity. The mass of water facing the Moon is pulled out because its gravity is stronger there. Thhe mass of water facing AWAY from the moon is pulled out because of the LACK of moon gravity on it, if that makes sense. Wherever is not facing the moon or directly away from the moon has low tides because the moon's gravity does not much affect that area and the water from there rushes to the areas facing and facing away from the moon.
