Question
does the earths elliptical orbit impact the cycle of seasons?
yes, because it gets hotter when the earths orbit is close to the sun and cold when its farther away.
no, because the earths distance from the sun only varies by a small percentage.
no, because the earth is always too far from the sun for it to impact our weather.
yes, because the moon cant block as much of the suns warmth when were close to it in orbit.
The cycle of seasons is mainly caused by the tilt of the Earth's axis, not its elliptical orbit. The Earth's distance from the Sun varies only by a small percentage due to its elliptical orbit, and this variation does not significantly impact the seasons.
