What would happen if the Earth was not tilted?

The warmer weather of summer in many parts of the Northern Hemisphere is caused by the fact that during this period -

the melting of ice raises the sea level in this area.

this area is closer to the Sun than at other times.

this area receives more direct solar energy.

the Sun emits the greatest amount of energy.

Which of the following changes would cause the seasons on Earth to change more rapidly?

Increasing the speed of the rotation of Earth on its axis.

Decreasing the time it takes Earth to make one orbit around the Sun.

Increasing the radiation output produced each year by the Sun.

Decreasing the number of times Earth rotates on its axis per year.

The axis on which Earth now rotates is tilted at an angle. If the axis was to be changed so that it was perfectly upright, which change would be expected on Earth?

For every season, the length of the day would be shorter.

There would no longer be periods of light and darkness.

It would always be winter in the Southern Hemisphere.

There would not be the same pattern of seasonal changes in weather.

The seasons on the Earth are the result of -

the orbit of the moon around the Earth.

the Sun having a large gravitational pull.

the continual rotation of Earth on its tilted axis.

the tilt of the Earth and its orbit (revolution) around the Sun.
