Question

5. Explain the process of Earth-Sun Relationships using the terms rotation, revolution, and seasons.

Answer 1

The seasons are caused by the direction Earth's axis is pointing relative to the Sun. The Earth revolves around the Sun once each year and spins on its axis of rotation once each day. This axis of rotation is tilted 23.5 degrees relative to its plane of orbit around the Sun.

Answer 2

• Earth rotates around the sun in affix orbit along with the earth spinning on its own axis.

• The rotation of earth around the sun causes the season to change. The rotation of earth around the sun which takes 365 days is called one revolution of earth.

• On rotation of earth around its own axis provides day and night. These revolution cause the four season to exist sequentially in a year.
