Earth's axis of rotation changes direction twice during this time explains the pattern of daytime & nighttime that occurs every 24 hours on Earth.

<h3>What about earth's axis?</h3>
  • Every 365 days, the Earth revolves once around the sun, and every 24 hours, it rotates around its axis.
  • Instead of the Earth orbiting the sun, day and night are caused by the planet rotating on its axis.
  • One day encompasses both daytime and nighttime and is measured by how long it takes the Earth to complete one rotation around its axis.
  • The Earth rotates on its axis more slowly than it does in relation to the Sun.
  • Day and darkness are caused by the Earth's rotation, while the seasons are caused by its revolution.
  • The tilt of the Earth's axis is what causes the seasons.
  • The Northern Hemisphere is inclined toward the sun during the summer, allowing it to receive more direct sunlight.

Why is carbon so important in biology molecules?

Explain why the shape of animals is basically spherical whereas plants and fungi are filamentous
Reika [66]
Plants and fungi are usually filamentous to increase the surface area in which they uptake their food, and this is advantageous as they raise their surface area for sunlight in photosynthesis.
Conversely, animals are usually round to reduce surface area for loss of water and heat. Unlike plant and fungi, most of their food intake is through the mouth hence not affected by surface area.
