Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is option 2. because the sun's rays do not reach the poles.

Explanation:

Both the North Pole and the South Pole have the coldest climates on earth because sunlight does not reach those places directly.

The sun is low on the horizon even in the summer. And during winter, the sun does not rise at all.

The axial tilt of the Earth, which also defines our seasons of the year, is responsible for this happening.

Due to the angle of incidence of the Poles, the rays coming from the sun will have to travel through more of the Earth's atmosphere .

Unlike the rays received in the tropics, which arrive directly.
