They are seen a bands of light in the sky. In the polar regions these bands are usually bright green in color and at lower latitudes more frequently seen as reddish glows.
The light stripes are regions of high clouds, and the dark stripes are regions where we can see down to deeper, darker clouds.
I see that no one has answered your question yet.... im actually doing hw and i have the same question. But mine is multiple choice so maybe this will help.They are bothe regions ofhigh air pressurelight windsheavy rainslow temperatureshey guys!

== == Study of Light & Nature of Light is called " OPTICS "
The lighter-colored regions of the moon are called Highlands

It is unpredictable.
The aurora borealis. Auroras, sometimes called the northern and southern (polar) lights or aurorae are natural light displays in the sky, usually observed at night, particularly in the polar regions. They typically occur in the ionosphere. In northern latitudes, the effect is known as the aurora borealis, named after the Roman goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the Greek name for north wind, Boreas,
At high latitudes, the Sun never gets very high above the horizon even in the summer, which means that the Sun's light and heat are spread out over a greater area.

Since man originated in Africa, the original man was almost certainly black. Lighter skin colours are an adaptation to northern latitudes, since they allow the skin to absorb more ultraviolet light, enabling people in regions of low sunlight to make sufficient vitamin D. On the other hand, in areas of strong sunlight light skin is a disadvantage, as light-skinned people are more prone to develop skin cancers.
Many sunglasses make use of te polarization of light to reduce glare.
At higher latitudes (toward the poles), the angle of the Sun's rays is not vertical but shallow, meaning that more of the energy is both absorbed and refracted in the atmosphere. Even in the summer, the angle in polar regions is as much as 50 to 66° from vertical. So although the spinning Earth provides all areas of the planet with the same amount of daylight each year, the energy provided by this light can be significantly less.Factor in the higher albedo of ice, snow, and clouds, and the polar regions will always be colder compared to the tropical regions.
