Answer:

It is warmer near the equator because sunlight hits Earth's surface most directly near the equator. Near the poles, sunlight arrives at a steep angle, so it must spread out over a greater area. Earth has seasons because the Earth's axis is tilted as it revolves around the sun

Reasons for the regions closer to Earth’s poles experiencing less daylight hours:

Due to the tilting in earth’s axis of about 23.5 degrees at the center of the axis of the earth, for six months in a year both the poles get equal but less sunlight than the center of the earth whereas in both summer and winter the equator get equal amount of sunlight unlike poles, therefore, the regions closer to Earth’s poles experience less daylight hours than those closer to Earth’s equator.
