The seasons result from the Earth's axis being tilted; it deviates by an angle of about 23.50 degrees. Thus, at any given time during summer or winter, one part of the planet is more directly exposed to the rays of the Sun. This exposure alternates as the Earth revolves in its orbit. At any given time, the northern and southern hemispheres experience opposite seasons
