QUESTION: ______orbit the____

ANSWER: Planets, sun

QUESTION: The largest star in our solar system is the

ANSWER: sun

QUESTION: Describe the orbit of the Sun, moon and Earth in relationship to one another

ANSWER: The moon orbits the Earth, the Earth orbits the sun Moon Earth Sun

QUESTION: Path an object takes when revolving around another object

ANSWER: orbit

QUESTION: Large sphere in space that revolves around a star

ANSWER: Planet

QUESTION: When the sun reaches its farthest northern and southern declinations

ANSWER: Solstice

QUESTION: The Earth moves around the_______________

ANSWER: Sun

QUESTION: When the day and night are of almost equal length:

ANSWER: Equinox

QUESTION: How long does it take the Earth to orbit the sun?

ANSWER: days

QUESTION: How long does it take the Earth to make 1 rotation?

ANSWER: 24 hours

QUESTION: What causes day and night?

ANSWER: The Earth’s rotation on its axis.

QUESTION: How much of the Earth is in day or night at any given time?

ANSWER: Depends on the season

QUESTION: The tilt of the Earth’s axis is:

ANSWER:

QUESTION: Label the seasons for the Northern Hemisphere:

ANSWER: A:Summer B: Autumn/Fall C:Spring D:Winter

QUESTION: As you move from the ________________ towards the __________, the days during the summer get ______________.

ANSWER Equator, Poles, Longer

QUESTION: Which city experiences the least amount of change in hours of daylight during the seasons? 1 2 3

ANSWER: City 2 because it is closest to the equator.

QUESTION: True or False: One complete rotation of Earth takes days.

ANSWER False: orbit

QUESTION: When the Northern Hemisphere experiences the season of spring, the Southern Hemisphere experiences the season of_______________

ANSWER: Fall

QUESTION The sun, moon and stars appear to rise and set each day due to __________________

ANSWER: Earth’s rotation on its axis

QUESTION: Explain why the Poles are colder than the Equator. Include the angle and intensity of light.

ANSWER: The poles do not have as much direct sunlight as the equator due to the curve of the earth and therefore are colder. The equator is facing directly at the Sun.

QUESTION: Explain why winter is colder than summer. Include (1) the tilt of Earth’s axis and how the tilt affects (2) the angle and intensity of light and( 3) number of hours of daylight.

ANSWER: The tilt of the Earth’s axis makes one pole point towards the sun at a time. When the North Pole is tilted away from the sun, the Northern Hemisphere has winter. Therefore, the angle of sunlight is not as direct as it is in the summer and the sunlight is not as intense therefore making it colder. We also have less hours of daylight in the winter which also causes it to be colder.
