Answer: seen below

Explanation:

The earth is titled n not straight on its axis.

Which means that, the rays of the sun fall directly on the equator, heating the equator more than the other regions. they fall obliquely as you move north or south of the equator.

Secondly, the heat also depends on the revolution of the earth, since the earth revolves around it's own axis, when it is summer in the southern and visa versa.

This uneven heating causes change of atmospheric pressure, and winds blow from regions with high pressure to those with low pressure. The factors that contribute to the uneven heating of the Earth by the sun include latitude, seasons, and the time of the day.
