Answer:

There would be no seasons anywhere on Earth

Explanation:

If the Earth's axis was not tilting and it was at a 90 degrees angle relative to its orbit, then the seasons on Earth would disappear. The climate on the planet would be defined by the latitude. The equator and the areas close to it would always have summer, as they will receive direct sunlight throughout all of the year. The mid-latitudes will always have temperate climate, reminding of spring and autumn, as the sunlight will not be very direct, but it will also not be very dispersed, jut enough to create a constantly pleasant climate. The higher latitudes will always have winter, as the sunlight will come at a very low angle throughout all of the year, thus it will be very dispersed, not enough to ever warm this parts enough, so they will constantly be under ice.

Answer:

The entire planet would experience the same season at any given time.

Explanation:

Due to the tilt, some parts of the earth will be tilted towards the earth at a particular point in the orbit while others will be tilted away from the sun. This means the amount of sunlight reaching these points is differential. This also changes dynamically, more pronounced in the poles, as the earth revolves around the sun. Without the tilt, this phenomenon would not be therefore and there would be no changes as the earth revolves around the sun.

fiasKO [112]
A baby's immune system is not fully developed until he/she is about six months-old. In the meantime, pregnant mothers pass immunoglobulin antibodies from their bloodstream, through the placenta, and to the fetus. These antibodies are an essential part of the fetus's immune system. They identify and bind to harmful substances, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi that enter the body. This triggers other immune cells to destroy the foreign substance.
