Which statement best describes how the tilt of Earth's rotational axis relates to the amount of solar energy received? A. When a hemisphere is tilting away from the sun, the whole planet receives less direct sunlight,

B. When a hemisphere is tilting toward the sun, that hemisphere receives less direct sunlight.

C. When a hemisphere is tilting toward the sun, the whole planet receives less direct sunlight.

D. When a hemisphere is tilting away from the sun, that hemisphere receives less direct sunlight.​

Explanation:

A. Around December 21, the Northern Hemisphere tilts the farthest away from the Sun. This is called the northern winter solstice, and it is when we have the least amount of daylight of any time of the year.

B.Solstices and shifting solar declinations are a result of Earth's 23.5° axial tilt as it orbits the sun. Throughout the year, this means that either the Northern or Southern Hemisphere is tilted toward the sun and receives the maximum intensity of the sun's rays.

C.The tilt of the Earth's axis also defines the length of daylight. Daylight hours are shortest in each hemisphere's winter. Between summer and winter solstice, the number of daylight hours decreases, and the rate of decrease is larger the higher the latitude. The fewer sunlight hours the colder the nights

D.The second solstice occurs on December 21 or 22 when the north pole is tilting 23.5 degrees away from our Sun and the south pole is inclined toward it. This is the shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere — the northern hemisphere winter solstice.

oxygen, selenium, tellurium, and polonium.

they're all from the same group as sulfur (group 16).
