The correct option is D Singapore
The Earth's axial
tilt is responsible for seasons. During summer in the northern hemisphere the
sun will shine more directly on the northern hemisphere and less on the
southern hemisphere (where it is winter).
As the Earth orbits
the sun the axial tilt remains the same thus 6 months later it will shine more
on the southern hemisphere therefore it will be winter in the northern
hemisphere. In winter there will be less daylight hours and in summer there
will be more.
As a
result of the Earth's axial tilt, Equatorial countries like sinapore (1°
17′ 0″ N) do not really experience seasons. No matter
what time of year they will still receive the same amount of sunlight hence
roughly 12 daylight hours per day.
