The polar regions have long, freezing winters. They usually have temperatures of below zero and plenty of blizzards in the winter. In the summer, it is around 50-60 degrees Fahrenheit or so and the landscape is completely transformed. The arctic snow is replaced by dark brown soil and the hills are bursting with flowers. However, the pleasant summers are very short, and the long, cold winters begin again.

Describe the air temperature in regions of the earth that receive less heat?

Regions of the earth that receive less heat, such as polar regions and higher altitudes, tend to have colder air temperatures compared to areas near the equator. This is due to the angle of the sun's rays and the amount of daylight hours these regions receive, resulting in less direct sunlight and warmth. This leads to cooler temperatures in these areas.

What is a point of view from which to describe motion?

the point of view that you describe motion from is whatever you choose it to be. generally we describe motion relative to earth. for example you could say that a car is moving 60mph north, and it would be assumed to be moving relative to earth; but if someone is riding their bike 10mph north, then the car is moving 50mph north relative to the bike. you see, you could describe the car moving compared to a star in a distant galaxy if you wanted, but that would be useless information so you should choose something relative to the problem.


Why would there be no polar regions if Earth's axis were not tilted?

Even if the earth was tilted, it would still rotate on its own axis. The axis would meet the earth at the poles and the regions surrounding those points would be polar regions. That would be true whatever the earth's tilt.
