Does the axis go straight up and down or is it tilted?
The axis for the basketball is vertical (straight up and down), but Earth spins on an axis that is tilted —23.5 degrees to be exact. Earth's axis always points in the same direction. Because of this, the part of Earth that receives the most direct rays from the Sun changes as the Earth travels around the Sun.
Is the Northern Hemisphere tilted toward or away from the Sun gizmos?
In the Northern Hemisphere, summer officially starts June 21. On the June solstice, the North Pole is tilted the maximum amount toward the sun, and the Southern Hemisphere is tilted the maximum amount away from the sun.
Which hemisphere receives more sunlight on December 21?
The Southern Hemisphere Answer. The Southern Hemisphere simply has more sunlight to reflect! The winter solstice is the longest day of the year in the Southern Hemisphere. This means it experiences more sunlight on this day than any other.
Why do you need blood gizmo?
You need blood because it brings oxygen and nutrients to different parts of your body so they can work. What organ pushes blood through your body? Your heart pushes blood through your body.
What would most likely happen if one of the runners began jogging in knee deep water?
What would most likely happen if one of the runners began jogging in knee-deep water? If one of the runners began jogging in knee-deep water, the runner would slow down.
Where is the southernmost limit of solar radiation?
the Tropic of Capricorn On this day of the summer solstice in the Southern Hemisphere, the Sun's vertical overhead rays progress to their southernmost position, the Tropic of Capricorn (23°27´ S).
What season is it in the Northern Hemisphere How about in the Southern Hemisphere?
Actually, the names for the hot season (summer) and cold season (winter) apply the same way in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. What is different is when those seasons occur on the Jovian Calendar. Our northern winter is in Dec, Jan and Feb, whereas the southern winter is in June, July, and August.
Why is it colder during the winter than the summer?
D. The earth is tilted slightly away from the sun in the summer and much farther away from the sun in the winter.
How does the angle of the sun’s rays relate to temperature?
Angle of Solar Radiation and Temperature When the sun's rays strike Earth's surface near the equator, the incoming solar radiation is more direct (nearly perpendicular or closer to a 90˚ angle). Therefore, the solar radiation is concentrated over a smaller surface area, causing warmer temperatures.
What causes summer and winter?
The earth's spin axis is tilted with respect to its orbital plane. This is what causes the seasons. When the earth's axis points towards the sun, it is summer for that hemisphere. When the earth's axis points away, winter can be expected.
What happens in summer season?
Weather in the summer grows warmer, and in some areas, the heat translates to drier temperatures. This hot, dry time of year can lead to droughts, where water is in short supply. Heat waves, times of excessively hot weather that include spikes in temperature, can also occur during the summer.
What is your heart made of?
Your heart is made up of three layers of tissue: epicardium. myocardium. endocardium.
Where does urea enter the blood gizmo?
the liver Urea enters the blood in the liver.
What affects how much light waves refract?
The amount of bending depends on two things: Change in speed – if a substance causes the light to speed up or slow down more, it will refract (bend) more. Angle of the incident ray – if the light is entering the substance at a greater angle, the amount of refraction will also be more noticeable.
What is the relationship between index of refraction and wave speed ratio?
The index of refraction is equal to the speed of light in a medium divided by the speed of light in a vacuum.
What do you mean by direct rays?
Direct rays are also called vertical rays. The term vertical describes rays that are coming from directly overhead. Because the Earth is round, not all of the Sun's rays strike the Earth in a vertical, or direct, manner. These less direct rays are called oblique rays.
Where is the solar equator?
The solar equator is the latitude on Earth at which the Sun is observed directly overhead at midday. Due to the obliquity of Earth's axis, the solar equator varies during the year, from the Tropic of Capricorn on the December solstice to the Tropic of Cancer on the June solstice.
What causes winter and summer?
The earth's spin axis is tilted with respect to its orbital plane. This is what causes the seasons. When the earth's axis points towards the sun, it is summer for that hemisphere. When the earth's axis points away, winter can be expected.
What happens in winter season?
Winter is the season that comes after fall and before spring. Winter is usually the coldest time of year and in some places, it brings freezing temperatures, snow, and ice with it. Even places that don't get snow or freezing cold weather still have a winter season.
Why is it colder in the winter than in the summer?
The earth is tilted slightly away from the sun in the summer and much farther away from the sun in the winter.
Why is it hotter in the summer and colder in the winter?
As the earth travels around the sun during the year it maintains this tilt. Because of this tilt, in the summer we (north of the equator) are slanted more directly towards the sun so it's hotter. In the winter, we're slanted away so the sun's rays are less direct, making it colder.
How is winter and summer?
Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun's most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere. And when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
What is winter and summer?
Winter typically has cold weather, little daylight, and limited plant growth. In spring, plants sprout, tree leaves unfurl, and flowers blossom. Summer is the warmest time of the year and has the most daylight, so plants grow quickly. In autumn, temperatures drop, and many trees lose their leaves.

What do you feel in summer?
It just feels like everyone is going somewhere. The patios at your favorite restaurants are overflowing, people are jogging and biking through the streets, and green spaces are filled with folks lounging on blankets. The planet really does feel so much more alive during these months.

What carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs?
The only artery that picks up deoxygenated blood is the pulmonary artery, which runs between the heart and lungs.
How is the blood in the pulmonary veins different from blood in other veins?
While veins usually carry deoxygenated blood from tissues back to the heart, in this case, pulmonary veins are among the few veins that carry oxygenated blood instead. Oxygenated blood from the lungs is circulated back to the heart through the pulmonary veins that drain into the left atrium.
