Around december 21st each year, the earth experiences a solstice. in the northern hemisphere, which season is it when this solstice takes place? a. spring b. winter c. fall d. summer

Option (B)

Explanation:

In the northern hemisphere, the winter solstice generally occurs on 21st/22nd of December every year. This is the time when the duration of the day time is the shortest as it receives the least amount of sunlight during this particular day. On the other hand, it has the longest night of the year.

This winter solstice occurs due to the tilting of the earth's axis, and the arc the sun moves throughout the daytime increases and decreases across the year as the pole of the earth is projected either towards or away from the direction of the sun. This solstice usually occurs at the minimum point for the case of northern hemisphere under a condition, when the sun is at the lowest position in the sky.

Thus, this solstice takes place in the winter season, in the northern hemisphere.

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).
