The perihelion is the point at which Earth is closest to the Sun, and the aphelion is the point at which Earth is farthest away. Based on this information, which statement is true?

The correct answer is option B which is when Earth is on perihelion, it is the beginning of summer.

Explanation:

Perihelion and aphelion are Greek words. In Greek hellion means the sun and peri means close while ephe means far.

So the perihelion which is normally two weeks after December it shows the starting of summers.

Some areas of earth begin to come in front of sun due to which the temperature of these areas start rising.

the overall balanced equation

6co2 + 6h2o > c6h12o6 + 6o2

sunlight energy

where: co2 = carbon dioxide

h2o = water

light energy is required

c6h12o6 = glucose

o2 = oxygen
