well the earths tilt and its rotation affects it because one half of the earth is facing towards the sun the other half has less sun. the part with the most sunlight it is summer then the one with a lot of sunlight but still darkness is spring then the part with a lot of darkness but still some light autumn and then the part with the most darkness is winter.
i hope this helped

Does the autumnal equinox mark the beginning of fall for both hemispheres?
That is depending on what you regard as the autumnal equinox. The autumnal equinox in the northern hemisphere is in September and it marks the start of autumn. In the southern hemisphere the autumnal equinox is in March and it marks the start of autumn. So looking at in that way, you can say yes. Of course those are two different dates on the calendar, so the autumnal equinox in one is happening at the same time as the spring equinox in the other. It is the same equinox, but where on Earth you are, determines which equinox it is. As autumn starts in one hemisphere, spring is starting in the other. So on that basis they don't mark the start of autumn in both hemispheres. It is never the same season in both hemispheres.
Explain why the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere have opposite seasons at the same time?
they have opposite seasons because at the same time, the northern hemisphere might be experiencing more radiation and the other may not. that is with summer and winter. with spring and autumn its kind of like the same thing but its just that they are tilted at different ways and one isn't experiencing that same thing as the other. im thinking this is it.
