Answer:

B) 12 hours of daylight.

Explanation:

B) 12 hours of daylight.

In near the equator we experience 12 hours of daylight as the equator is situated exactly the halfway in between the two poles. The North pole experiences  long daylight in the months, when the North Pole is tilted towards the Sun and shorter daylight when the pole tilted away from the Sun. The reverse is true for the Southern Poles. But this wouldn't have any effects in daylight on the equator.

The five main latitude regions of Earth's surface comprise geographical zones[1], divided by the major circles of latitude. The differences between them relate to climate. They are as follows:

The North Frigid Zone, between the North Pole at 90° N and the Arctic Circle at 66° 33' N, covers 4.12% of Earth's surface.

The North Temperate Zone, between the Arctic Circle at 66° 33' N and the Tropic of Cancer at 23° 27' N, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.

The Torrid Zone, between the Tropic of Cancer at 23° 27' N and the Tropic of Capricorn at 23° 27' S, covers 39.78% of Earth's surface.

The South Temperate Zone, between the Tropic of Capricorn at 23° 27' S and the Antarctic Circle at 66° 33' S, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.

The South Frigid Zone, from the Antarctic Circle at 66° 33' S and the South Pole at 90° S, covers 4.12% of Earth's surface.
