Answer:

The correct answer is winter.

Step-by-step explanation:

The orientation of the sunrise changes with the seasons. The southernmost sunrise and sunset points occur in the winter solstice. The winter months are the coldest of the year because the reserves of heat and solar energy in the atmosphere and on the Earth's surface are at their lowest point, because the sun is at its lowest point.

Have a nice day!
