The changing seasons on planets are primarily caused by the tilt of their axes and their orbit around the sun. For Earth, as it revolves around the sun, different regions receive varying amounts of sunlight at different times of the year due to this axial tilt. This variation in sunlight intensity and duration leads to seasonal changes in temperature and weather patterns. Other planets with significant axial tilts also experience seasonal changes, though their seasons may differ in length and intensity compared to Earth's.

A very small tilt in Earth'sare axis would likely cause .?

That would most likely cause a very small change in the seasons.


Why does the earth have seasons while other planets do not?

Earth has seasons because its axis is tilted relative to its orbit around the sun. This tilt causes different parts of the Earth to receive various amounts of sunlight throughout the year, resulting in the changing of seasons. Other planets may not have seasons if they have a less pronounced tilt or different orbital characteristics.


What shrinks and grows with the seasons in the terrestrial planets?

The polar ice caps on terrestrial planets, such as Earth and Mars, shrink and grow with the seasons due to changes in temperature and sunlight exposure. These changes cause ice to melt and accumulate, affecting the size of the ice caps throughout the year.


How does the moon play a role in the changing seasons?

The moon has no effect on when the seasons change.


What causes all planets to have seasons?

well, I don't know if it works for all planets but I've learned that when a planet(earth) revolves (rotates on it's tilted axis while moving round the sun), it does not remain in the same position all the time: when a part leans out towards the sun,it gets more light and heat and is warmer. And when this same part later leans away from the sun, there is less light and heat and is cooler...And this explains the change in climate; the change in seasons.... So, I will say (or rather write) that revolution (name for one of a planet's movements) causes planets to have seasons>>>>>>>>....................
