Why is Saturn is called the tipped planet?

It is not. Saturn is called the "crowned planet" because of it's ring.Uranus is called the tipped planet because its axis of rotation is 89° to the ecliptic (the Ears axis is 23,5° to the ecliptic)


What planet has an axis tipped fartherthan any other planet?

That would be Uranus. Is this how you get your homework done?

If the Earth's axis were tipped 35 degrees relative to the pole of the ecliptic which effect would be seen?

Currently the axis is tipped 23.5 degrees; increasing this would make the differences between the seasons more pronounced; Summer would be hotter, and Winter would be colder.


Why does uranus spin clockwise on its axis?

Uranus rotates on its axis in a retrograde direction, or clockwise when viewed from above the Sun's North Pole. This unique rotation may have been caused by a powerful impact that tipped the planet on its side early in its formation. The tilt of Uranus' axis is so extreme that it leads to extreme variations in sunlight exposure and seasonal changes on the planet.

Uranus


The seasons are caused by a combination of which earth's effects?

Seasons are caused by the Earth spinning on its axis, and traveling in an elliptical orbit around the Sun. But the axis of the Earth's rotation isn't "normal to" (at a 90-degree angle to) the plane of the Earth's orbit (the "ecliptic"); the Earth's spin axis is 23.5 degrees "tipped" from being normal to the ecliptic. Because of that, the Earth's north pole is tilted a little "away from" the Sun in the fall and winter, and a little "toward" the Sun in the spring and summer. These differences cause the seasons.


Are the season caused by the tilt of the earths axis?

Yes.

The blue-green gas giant with an axis tipped farther than any other planet?

The blue-green gas giant with an axis tipped farther than any other planet is Uranus. It has a unique rotation where its axis is almost parallel to its orbital plane, causing extreme seasonal variations. Its distinctive blue-green hue is due to the presence of methane in its atmosphere.
