Explain why we never see an eclipse during a quarter moon. Use scientific reasoning to support your answer.

In order for an eclipse to occur, the Sun, Earth and the Moon must be lined up. During a quarter moon, the Moon is at a 90-degree angle.

In order for an eclipse to occur, the Earth and the Moon must be both in the sun's direct light. During a quarter moon, the Moon is at a 180-degree angle.

In order for an eclipse to occur, the Sun, Earth and the Moon must be lined up. During a quarter moon, the Moon is at a 180-degree angle.

Which best describes spring in the Northern Hemisphere?

equal length day and night at the equator

Northern Hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun

Northern Hemisphere receives the most direct sunlight

South Pole receives constant sunlight

Which is true of the Southern Hemisphere?

experiences opposite seasons as the Northern Hemisphere

experiences seasons at the same time as the Northern Hemisphere

receives most direct sunlight in May

receives most direct sunlight in August

Two students are trying to understand this diagram. Here is what they think: Andrew: It is summer in the Southern Hemisphere because it receives more direct sunlight. Jacob: It is fall in the Southern Hemisphere because the equator points away from the Sun. Which evidence best supports your answer?

The hemisphere that is tilted towards the Sun experiences summer.

The equator receives more direct sunlight than the poles.

The hemisphere that is tilted away from the Sun experiences summer.

Summer happens when the day and night are equal in length.

Earth is tilted at an angle of 23.5°. How would we experience seasons differently if Earth did not have this tilt?

Parts closest to the Equator would experience summer-like conditions all year.

Parts closest to the Equator would experience winter-like conditions all year.

Nothing would change with the seasons because Earth still rotates.

The north pole would be in summer for half of the year.

The amount of daylight is one of the factors that causes leaves to change color in the fall. In the month of October, trees in states that are farther north change colors before southern states. Explain why this happens.

States in the north receive less direct sunlight than southern states because the pole is pointed away from the Sun.

As fall transitions to winter, the states farther north will experience shorter nights sooner.

States in the north receive more direct sunlight than southern states because the pole is pointed away from the Sun.
