Seasons are Winter, Spring, Summer And Fall. The Sun moving (orbiting earth) causes them. So in the winter, the sun is on the opposite side of the world, and that's why it is so cold. In the summer, the sun is facing straight at us. Other season's, the sun is kinda in between, if that is any help

They extract raw materials from the environment in large amounts and return metabolic wastes. The waste accumulates in large amounts and differ from the original raw materials, thus altering the environment.
