Earth's surface is heated unevenly by the Sun. A student wants to make a model that shows how this uneven
heating is related to the curved shape of Earth's surface. In
the model, the Sun will be represented by a bright
flashlight
Which object would best represent Earth in the student's model?
O A. A flat board tilted at an angle
B. A second flashlight
O C. A shallow tray filled with soil
D. A round beach ball

D.

Explanation:

The earth is round and when the sun is shining on the earth the light of the sun is directed to one main surface that is directly towards towards the sun. This area depending on the time of year is the equator( or the middle of the earth) the further away from equator or the surface that is receiving the most of the sun light the less sun light and heat reaches it.

temperatures get warmer — and heatwaves are more common. nothing says summer like warm weather. this rise in temperatures is caused by the tilt of the earth's axis. our planet doesn't sit perfectly straight as it spins — it has a slight lean of approximately 23.5 degrees with respect to the sun, called the axial tilt.
