What really causes for seasons?
Answer Hi Quay It is the earth’s relation to the sun that causes the seasons, the motion of the sun through the sky is only an apparent vision we observe, different on every point of the world. The Earth rotates on its axis, a line drawn through the north and south poles. This is not inline, not parallel to the axis of the Earths orbit around the sun. This means that sometimes the southern hemisphere of the earth gets more sunlight (October to March) and other times of the year the northern hemisphere (April to September). When it is summer in South America it is winter in North America.
