Answer:
In contrast, the north pole receives 24 hours of daylight for a few months in the summer and total darkness for months in the winter. These two annual times of light and dark are separated by a long sunrise and a long sunset. Earth rotates on its axis; this causes us to experience day and night.

Explanation:
The North Pole has sunlight 24 hours a day now and will until early autumn. ... The North Pole isn't warm because the Sun isn't high in the sky. Its angle above the horizon is about 23.5 degrees on the solstice.
