The season in the Northern Hemisphere when the diagram depicts the Northern Hemisphere tilted toward the sun is summer.
The correct answer is summer.
To determine the season depicted in the diagram, you need to understand the tilt of the Earth's axis and how it affects the amount of sunlight received by different hemispheres during different times of the year.
The Earth's axis is tilted at an angle of about 23.5 degrees relative to its orbit around the sun. As a result, during certain times of the year, one hemisphere receives more direct sunlight, resulting in warmer temperatures and longer days. This is what causes the change in seasons.
In the diagram, if the Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, it means that it is receiving more direct sunlight. The increased exposure to sunlight leads to summer in the Northern Hemisphere.
Therefore, the correct answer is summer.
