Answer: C: When the North Pole tilts toward the sun, it is summer in the Northern hemisphere and winter in the southern hemisphere

Explanation: The Answer is C because when the earth its tilted on its axis the side that is tilted towards the sun is getting more of the direct sunlight which is warmer, which means its summer. So, if the north pole is getting the direct light then it is summer in the north and winter in the south.
