What parts of the earth receive direct rays from the sun all year round?
The equator receives sunlight all year round. The sunlight is direct. ____ All of the earth's surface outside of the arctic regions receives direct sunlight all year long. It is only north of the arctic circle and south of the antarctic circle that you have periods of night time extending for long periods of winter. There is no place on earth where the sun reaches the zenith every day of the year; not even the equator. Most of the time, sunlight reaches earth at an angle, but this does not mean that the sunlight is not 'direct'. Even at a location where the sun will reach zenith that day, the sun is at zenith only for a moment. For the entire balance of the day, the sunlight is direct, and at an angle. For that matter, even when the sun is at zenith the sunlight is at an angle: 90 degrees. In other words, the location of the sun when it transits the sky does not determine whether or not you are receiving direct sunlight.
Why does the far side of the moon actually receive slightly more sunlight than the side of the moon which faces earth?
The far side of the moon receives slightly more sunlight because it is never subject to a terrestrial eclipse (such as the shadow of the earth on the moon). However, while the far side does receive more direct sunlight. the near side, which faces Earth is more luminous due to the reflected sunlight from the Earth back to the moon. so in short answer, the far side receives more direct sunlight, but the near side is more luminous.
What zone receives the least sunlight?
the earth's core
