7. which one of the following is the main reason why the earth has seasons? (a) earth's orbit is elliptical. we have summer when we are closer to the sun and winter when we are farther from the sun. (b) the tilt of earth's axis of rotation causes one hemisphere of the planet to be substantially closer to the sun during the day than the other hemisphere. because it is closer to the sun, it receives more solar energy per hour. (c) over the course of the year, the tilt of earth's axis varies from 23.5° to 0° in such a way as to bring more heating per hour in the summer than in the winter. (d) the tilt of earth's axis of rotation causes the sun to pass higher in the sky during the day in one hemisphere than in the other, thereby giving more daylight hours and more heating per hour. (e) it has seasons so that sunbathers will know when to go to the beach, and skiers will know when to go skiing.
