Earth's tilted axis affects the strength of sunlight in different places on earth's surface. if you are in an area that is receiving less direct sunlight, where are you located? a). near the equator b). near the north pole c). near the south pole d). near the north and south pole

The answer is; D

The angle at which the sun rays strike the earth at the equator is more or less 90 degrees while you move towards the poles, it much less than this. This means that the unit of sunlight per surface area received at the equator is higher than that at the poles. This is why the equator is always warmer than the poles.  

significant amounts of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and other pollution

explanation:

passenger vehicles are a major pollution contributor, producing significant amounts of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and other pollution. in 2013, transportation contributed more than half of the carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides, and almost a quarter of the hydrocarbons emitted into our air.
