VladimirAG [237]3 years ago

Answer:

As the earth spins on its axis, producing night and day, it also moves about the sun in an elliptical (elongated circle) orbit that requires about 365 1/4 days to complete. The earth's spin axis is tilted with respect to its orbital plane. This is what causes the seasons.

But Earth's distance from the sun doesn't change enough to cause seasonal differences. Instead, our seasons change because Earth tilts on its axis, and the angle of tilt causes the Northern and Southern Hemispheres to trade places throughout the year in receiving the sun's light and warmth most directly

Relatively speaking, Earth's distance from the Sun doesn't change all that much throughout the year, nevertheless there are measurable differences in solar heating that result from our planet's slightly elliptical orbit.
