Question

1. to a person standing on the equator during the autumnal equinox, the sun would appear to be somewhat north south equally positioned

Explanation:

During the autumnal equinox, the sun is directly above the equator. For a person on the equator, the sun's position relative to north - south is balanced, meaning it is equally positioned in terms of north - south influence (or appears to have no net north or south bias in its apparent path/positioning). The "North" and "South" options would imply a directional bias, which does not occur at the equinox on the equator.

Answer:

Equally positioned
