Why do the seasons happen?

1 answer:

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.

In other words: Earth has seasons because its axis is tilted. Earth's axis is always pointed in the same direction, so different parts of Earth get the Sun's direct rays throughout the year. ... Many people believe that Earth is closest to the Sun in summer and farthest in winter...

If you don't understand those ways here's one you may understand: The reason we have seasons is because, during its journey around the Sun, the Earth is tilted. The Earth's tilt affects the amount of daylight each hemisphere gets, which in turn makes the temperature hotter or colder.

Those are some ways we have seasons...

By the way, what's your favorite season???

Hope this helps.. Stay safe and have a great day/night!!! :D

Answer: ethical lapse

Explanation:

An ethical lapse is an error or mistake in judgement that an individual commits which brings about a harmful outcome. It is usually as a result of an oversight as it really doesn't mean that the individual lacks integrity.

The scenario in the question is an ethical lapse. This is because the extra $25 she pocketed wasn't accounted for as it was an oversight and it wasn't that she intentionally stole the $25 or didn't account for it intentionally.

Between _____ percent and _____ percent of all women report having seen or had direct contact with an exhibitionist.

ANTONII [103]

Since not all the women have been asked (it's impossible, it would take too much time and be too expensive), we can only have an estimate - it's around 50%, or half the women.

The various statistics, depending on the county and a survey are between 40% and 60% - so that is the correct answer.

But as I said, depending on the sample and the source, that number can slightly vary.
