A student wrote the argument below to explain why we experience different seasons on Earth:

We experience seasons on Earth because the Earth is tilted on its axis. The Hemisphere experiencing summer is tilted toward the sun and receives more direct sunlight. The Hemisphere experiencing winter is tilted away from the sun and receives more indirect sunlight.

Which of the following is a way that the student’s argument can be improved?
The student should not say that direct and indirect sunlight cause the seasons
The student should not say that the tilt of the Earth causes the seasons
The student should add the Earth’s orbit around the sun to the argument
The student should add the Earth’s distance from the sun to the argument
