Question

the model below shows earth at four points in its orbit around the sun. the white lines at the north pole and south pole represent earths axis. based on the model, which of the following is true? the north pole always points toward the sun. earths axis is tilted during only half of its orbit. the tilt of earths axis stays the same throughout the year.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The Earth's axis is tilted at an angle of approximately 23.5 degrees relative to its orbital plane around the Sun. This tilt remains constant throughout the year as the Earth orbits the Sun. The model shows the Earth at different positions in its orbit, but the tilt of the axis (represented by the white lines) does not change. The North Pole does not always point toward the Sun (for example, in some positions in the orbit, it points away). Also, the Earth's axis is tilted throughout its entire orbit, not just half of it.

Answer:

The tilt of Earth's axis stays the same throughout the year.
