Answer:

The Tropics receive more direct sunlight, resulting in warmer climates. The Poles receive  almost no direct sunlight, resulting in a colder climate.

Explanation:

The tropics and the poles are two totally different regions on Earth. The differences can be seen in pretty much everything, from climate conditions to soil, geography, biosphere, precipitation, human activity, etc. One of the most noticeable and most important differences between the two is definitely the angle at which the sunlight falls.

The tropics are the region that receives sunlight at direct or close to direct angle all year round. This means highly concentrated sunlight and warm or hot weather conditions all year round. The poles are the region that receives sunlight at the lowest angle, having it constantly for around half a year, and then lacking it for half a year. This means very dispersed sunlight which can not warm up the surface and air, so the weather conditions are very cold all year round.
