Question 34 • TX-World Geography Studies A

Which of these factors is the most important reason why the Earth has seasons?

Answer
A
It rotates each day.
B
Its axis is tilted.
C
It spins from west to east.
D
It has four spheres.

Explanation

Earth’s axis is tilted relative to its orbit around the Sun. As Earth travels around the Sun, each hemisphere gets different angles and durations of sunlight at different times of year, causing the seasons. Daily rotation causes day and night, not the seasons, so “Its axis is tilted” is the correct choice.
