Answer:
Here's Your Answer
Explanation:
a) The spring equinox is March 19.
b) The word equinox comes from Latin and means, “equality of night and day.” At this point in time, the sun is directly above the hemisphere, meaning that both halves of the Earth are receiving the sun's rays equally, and the length of day and night are pretty much the same.
