Explain why it is generally warmer near the equator than it is near the poles.

Due to the amount of sunlight earth receives.

Explanation:

The earth is tilted in such a way that earth receives very less sunlight on the polar side.

In contrast to this the equator of the earth receives more sunlight so the regions lying at equator are warm.

This is the reason, why its warmer near equator and cold near poles. It is because of the angle of the earth which receives more amount of sunlight.
