Answer:

The length of days and nights change with the seasons.

Explanation:

Distance from the equator along with the tilt of Earth's rotational axis contributes to day and night period differences. Daylight hours or the period of sunlight exposure vary due to the inclined axis of the latitudes. In the northern hemisphere during summers, the tilt of the axis is towards the sun which brought more sunlight to the exposed region. And therefore the length of day hours is more than the southern hemisphere which at the same time will be tilted away from the sun.
