    The Earth revolves around the Sun in an elliptical path and the Sun is located at one focus of the ellipse. Imagine a situation is which Earth goes around the Sun on a circular path. Which one among the following would result in under that situation?

    A)  It would not make any difference

    B) Difference between seasons will be reduced

    C) The Earth would become very hot

    D)  The Earth would become very cold

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The difference would be negligible. A perfectly circular orbit would mean that the earth is always the same distance from the sun which means, an exact equal measure of time can be given to each season. However, the primary cause of our seasons is the tilt Bf the earth's spin axis with respect to its orbital plane. Eliminating the variation in distance from the sun would not affect this primary attribute.
