earths surface is curved.
cause
effect
when it is winter in the northern hemisphere,
it is summer in the southern hemisphere.
locations near the north pole and south pole
get less energy than locations near the
equator.

Explanation:

• The tilt of Earth's axis causes the seasons. When the Northern Hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, it experiences winter, while the Southern Hemisphere, tilted towards the Sun, has summer.
• The curved surface of the Earth means that sunlight hits different latitudes at different angles. Near the poles, sunlight is more spread out (lower intensity), while near the equator, it is more concentrated (higher intensity).

Answer:

• Earth's axis is tilted: When it is winter in the Northern Hemisphere, it is summer in the Southern Hemisphere.
• Earth's surface is curved: Locations near the North Pole and South Pole get less energy than locations near the equator.
