Additional Activities
Earth's seasons change due to our planet's angle of tilt, 23.5 degrees relative
to our orbit around the sun. This varies the energy received on the different regions
on Earth leading to scasons. What will happen if the tilt earth changes to 90 degrees
or OP Will the energy received of the different regions of the Earth remain the same
to have seasons?

Answer:
The Short Answer:
Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun's most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere. And when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
