Answer:

D. during the summer near the North Pole

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of the sun above Earth's Northern Hemisphere is greatest on this day. Because Earth is tilted toward the sun to the maximum degree, the North Pole has 24 hours of daylight on June 20 or 21, whereas the South Pole (which is tilted away from the sun to the maximum degree) has 24 hours of darkness.
