What determines the seasons?
The earth tilts on its axis. As it goes around the sun the sun shines more on the southern part of the earth in winter. It shines on both in spring and fall and it shines more on the northern part in summer. Where the sun shines the most, it heats it up the most. Where it shines less, it heats it up less. but it has to be either: (which one is it?) a.atmosphere and lithosphere b.condensation and evaporation c. reservoirs and head waters d.temerature and percipitation
What does the equinoxes mark?
In the northern hemisphere, the autumnal equinox marks the first day of fall. An equinox happens twice a year, when the sun shines directly on the equator and the length of day and night is nearly equal.

Is solstice when the sun shines on one hemisphere?
Not exactly. The sun is always shining on parts of both the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere. As the Earth is tilted, there are times when it shines on more of one than the other. At the point it is shining on its maximum amount of one hemisphere, it is a solstice. It is still shining on the other hemisphere too, but just not as much as it is at other times. That happens in June, when it is mostly shining on the northern hemisphere, giving it longer days and shorter nights, and in December, when it is mostly shining on the southern hemisphere and it has the longer days and shorter nights.

How do seasons change when the sun shines on different parts of the earth?
well it's pretty simple as the world moves around the sun the sun it's always on a certain angle which defines why we have seasons when the northern hemisphere is on an angle towards the sun it is summer while in the other hemisphere it's cold in the same way when the southern hemisphere is on an angle towards the sun it is summer and the northern hemisphere is in there winter
What is the relationship between the inclination of the earth's axis and the length of days and nights?
During the middle of Summer in the Northern Hemisphere, the North Pole is tilted towards the Sun. Because of this, the Sun shines upon a greater length of each line of latitude in the Northern Hemisphere, causing longer days and shorter nights. Above the Arctic Circle there will be 24 hours of sunlight and no nighttime at all. The reverse will be happening in the Southern hemisphere at this time.

How strong does the sun shine on Antarctica?
The sun shines on Antarctica the at the same strength that it shines all over the planet, however, there is a seasonal hole in the Ozone layer over this part of the Southern Hemisphere, which increases the sun's ability to burn, scar and deface everything.
Why does protococcus usually grow more heavily on the northern side of trees?
Protococcus prefers to grow on the side of rocks, trees and soil that are moist and shady. In the northern hemisphere, the sun shines more heavily on the southern side of objects. This makes the north side of trees more shady, which is their preferred location.
