What are the two factors that cause the earth's seasons?

rotation of earth -earth is at a tilt so sometimes some parts get more sun then others rotation around the sun -earth will be at different distances from the sun as it rotates around


What effects does the earths tilt on its axis have on your daily life?

The earth's axis is an explanation of the tilt towards the sun. Currently the earth's axial tilt is approximately 23.44°. It is believed that past ice ages started when the axial tilt changed. The tilt is regulated by our moon. Without the moon, the earth would experince very significant differences in axis tilt over time which would make life on earth impossible.


What is the measure of the tilt of earths axis?

The tilt of Earth's axis is approximately 23.5 degrees away from perpendicular to the plane of its orbit around the Sun. This tilt is what causes the change in seasons as different parts of the Earth receive more or less direct sunlight over the course of the year.


How does tilt of earths rotation axis affect earth?

The tilt of Earth's rotation axis creates the different seasons by causing the amount of sunlight received at a given location to vary throughout the year. This tilt also affects climate patterns and the distribution of temperatures on Earth's surface, impacting weather systems and ecosystems.


What causes seasons to occur in certain zones A. Amount of rainfall B. Height of mountains C. Tilt of Earth's axis D. Longitude of the zone?

C. The tilt of Earth's axis causes seasons to occur in certain zones. The angle at which the Earth is tilted as it orbits the sun affects the amount of sunlight different regions receive, resulting in changes in temperature and weather patterns.
