The answer is that the equatorial regions receive sun rays closest to the vertical (direct rays) because of their position relative to the equator where the tilting of the earth only mildly affects the climate. The climate along the equator changes very little through out the year and has summer like conditions for most of the year.
However the other regions may receive direct sun rays but for far more limited periods. In the months of July and August (summer months), the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun and receives the most direct rays. The opposite occurs in December and January when it is tilted away from the sun and thus winter sets in, whereas the southern hemisphere is at this time tilted toward the sun and receives the most direct sun rays.
The answer is False.
Although, there are some evidence that suggests that species from million years ago possessed both gills and lungs. For example is the Acanthostega Gunnari, one of the oldest species discovered with four limbs. The creature is a salamander-like creature found in Greenland hundreds of million years ago. Although the specie can walk on land but the finding characterized the creature primarily as a fish.
The lining of the heart is the pericardium.
