What causes the different seasons on Earth?
The distance of Earth from the Sun changes significantly.
The tilt of Earth's axis relative to its orbit around the Sun.
The Sun's energy output varies throughout the year.
The Moon's gravitational pull affects Earth's climate.
Which of the following is true about Earth's axial tilt and its effect on seasons?
Earth's axis is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees, causing seasons.
Earth's axis is perfectly vertical, causing no seasons.
Earth's axis tilts back and forth throughout the year, causing seasons.

Measuring temperature changes in a closed container.
Observing plant growth under different light conditions.
Simulating ocean currents in a water tank.
How does the tilt of Earth's axis affect the length of day and night?
It causes equal day and night throughout the year.
It causes longer days in summer and shorter days in winter.
It causes longer nights in summer and shorter nights in winter.
