Why does summer receive more daylight hours than winter?

Biology
2 answers:
Andrews [41]3 years ago

Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

The amount of sunlight (daylight) earth receives is directly related to the tilt of the earth's imaginary rotation axis. The tilt of the earth is 23.5°. During the time of summer in the northern hemisphere, the tilt of the earth faces more towards the sun, and the sunlight is directly incident on it. So, the amount of daylight (or the duration of the day) is higher in summer.

On the other hand, during winter, the tilt of the sun faces opposite to the sun, so it receives a lesser amount of daylight, and so is cold during this time.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

Drupady [299]

Answer & explanation:

Fungi have long been regarded as organisms that were part of the <em>Plantae</em> kingdom (plants), mainly because they have cell walls in their cells, reproduce by spores, and the fact that some of them are sessile (attached to the ground).

However, fungi are no longer considered as plants because they do not have chlorophyll or specialized cells, such as chloroplasts and vacuoles. In addition, fungi have heterotrophic nutrition (plants are autotrophic), needing to absorb organic substances to survive.

Nowadays, fungi are studied in isolation and are inserted in their own kingdom, the <em>Fungi</em> kingdom.
