Solution

The correct option is A True
The tilt of the Earth's axis is the most important reason for seasonal variations. Earth is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees. This means that the Earth is always "pointing" to one side as it goes around the Sun. The varying amounts of sunlight around the Earth during the year, creates the seasons.
