The first thing you need to know about the seasons and the Earth is that the Earth is tilted on the axis in the same position all year. So in the winter the top hemisphere is tilted away from the sun and vice versa in the summer. With that in the summer theres more light shown in the northern hemisphere so its warmer when in the southern it's colder. The same the other way around with winter in the northern b/c theres not alot of light. so all in all the tilt of the earth on it's axis not moving at all but spinning into day and night is the cause of the seasons

what causes the seasons is how the earth is tilted ad what part of the sun is hitting that part of the earth. the seasons are also caused by the way the earth is rotating withinn itself on its axis. Each season is affected by the tilt and how the earth rotates.

The seasons are caused by how the Earth is rotating on its axis and also how it the sun is hitting the Earth, because if the sun is hitting the Earth on the northern hemisphere, and it is summer, the southern hemisphere would be the exact opposite.

The main thing that causes the seasons is the axis in the Earth. The axis makes seasons becasue of the way it spins. And the seasons are different in the Northern and the Southern. When most of the Northern is showing it is Summer. When a little bit of the earth is showing then it is Winter.

The seasons mostly are caused on the axis of the sun relative to the earth. If the sun is more to the northern hemisphere that means it is summer or transitioning from summer to fall or from spring to summer. And if the sun is more in the southern hemisphere it means it is winter or chaning from fall to winter or winter to spring.

yah i just learned that and it was cool... i thought the axis rotated

i think wat causes the seasons is the rotation of the moon and how it is titled on the earth's axis.

The seasons are caused by the tilt of the Earth.

THe way the earth is tilted on its axis. the farther away we are from the sun, the colder it is. Its always warm by the equator. When it is in transition that is when we have fall and spring.

I think the seasons are caused by the rotation of the Earth around the sun. The earth stays on one axis during the rotation

i think the seasons are cause by the earths orbit around the sunand the tilt. because the earth stays on one axis so it can tourn but cant move besides its orbit

I think the seasons are caused by the rotation of the earth around the sun. I also think it has something to do with the tilt of the earth's axis.

This is what i think. The Earth rotates. So does the sun.
