Why is it summer in the southern hemisphere when it is winter in the northern hemisphere? a. because the northern hemisphere has more direct sunlight b. because the southern hemisphere has more direct sunlight c. because the southern hemisphere is closer to the equator d. because the southern hemisphere receives indirect sunlight

B

Explanation:

The seasons are reversed in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres due to the tilt of the Earth. When the Southern Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun in the months of December, January, and February, this hemisphere experiences summer and the Northern is in winter.

The opposite occurs in June, July and August, when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun and is in summer, and the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away and experiences winter.

The angle at which sunlight strikes the Earth is of great importance to the seasons, and the 23.5° tilt of the Earth's axis creates a significant heating difference between the hemispheres depending on their current orientation.
