1. in the image, what part of the earth is experiencing the summer season?

○ a. the eastern hemisphere
○ b. the western hemisphere
○ c. the southern hemisphere
○ d. the northern hemisphere

Explanation:

To determine which hemisphere is in summer, we analyze the Earth's tilt and sun rays. The Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun (as seen from the image: sun rays hit the Northern Hemisphere more directly, and the Northern Hemisphere is in sunlight while part of the Southern is in shadow). Summer occurs in a hemisphere when it is tilted toward the Sun, receiving more direct solar energy. So the Northern Hemisphere is experiencing summer.

Answer:

D. The Northern hemisphere
