Question

question 8 of 10
what is responsible for setting up the differences between the tropical, temperature, and polar zones?
a. earths revolution
b. the polar jet stream
c. precession
d. earths tilt

Explanation:

The Earth's tilt is responsible for the differences in the amount of solar radiation received by different latitudes, creating the tropical, temperature, and polar zones. Earth's revolution affects the seasons but not the fundamental differences between these zones. The polar - jet stream is a result of temperature differences, not a cause of them. Precession is a slow change in the orientation of Earth's rotational axis over time and is not the main factor in setting up these zones.

Answer:

D. Earth's tilt
