Solution
The correct option is B 21st June
Earth orbits around the sun on a tilted axis. So between March and Seotember, Earth's Northern Hemisphere gets more exposure to direct sunlight over the course of a day. The rest of the year, the Southern Hemisphere gets more. In the Northern Hemisphere, the peak sunlight usually occurs on June 20, 21 or 22 of any year. That's summer solstice.
The correct option is B.
