The diagram below represents what cycle of the Earth? Spinning on it's axis.

• Moon Phases

• Orbit

• Revolution

• Rotation

Why do the temperatures change over the months?

• Because the Sun is tilted on its axis, parts of Earth get more sunlight during different times of Earth's yearly orbit.

• Because Earth is tilted on its axis, parts of Earth get more sunlight during different times of Earth's yearly orbit.

• Because the Moon is tilted on its axis, it reflects more sunlight on Earth during different times of Earth's yearly orbit.

• Because Earth is tilted on its axis, the stars reflect more light during different times of the Earth's yearly orbit.
