Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

In an ordinary year, if you were to count all the days in a calendar from January to December, you'd count 365 days. But approximately every four years, February has 29 days instead of 28. So, there are 366 days in the year. This is called a leap year.

The Southern Hemisphere experience Winter and Summer Solstice in different times than that of the Northern Hemisphere because: When the North Pole is tilted towards the Sun, the Northern Hemisphere experiences Summer Solstice. ... These conditions are reversed when the South hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun.
