The revolution of the earth defines its tilt. The "tilt" is the angle between the axis of rotation of the earth and the axis of its revolution around the sun. Both these axes must exist to define the tilt. If the earth did not rotate on an axis of its own, or if it did not revolve around the sun, it would be meaningless to speak of a tilt.

What causes saesons?
The earths tilt at its axis
What is the approximate angle of the tilt if the earths?
23.5 degrees
The moon shades the earth during the cold winter and that is what makes it cold?
No. What makes winter cold is the Earths tilt. The Earths "axial tilt" is 23.44 degrees. So, when it is winter, the tilt is away from the sun. when it is summer the tilt is facing the sun. when not facing the sun the tilt makes the days shorter, thus less sunlight and colder.
How changes in earths tilt would affect seasonal patterns?
If there were no tilt then there'd be no seasons. So it has a direct effect.
How would you describe what causes the seasons?
its earths tilt on its axis orbiting the sun
What is the responsible for setting up the differences between the tropical temperature and polar zones?
Earth's tilt
How is temperature is affected by location?
The average temperature in a certain location depends on how close it is to the equator, and the tilt of the earth at that time.
If the Earths rotation axis was shifted so that it had no tilt with respect to the orbit how would the seasons be affected?
There would be no seasons. Each place on Earth would have a constant climate. Temperature would change from night to day, but not as it changes between the seasons.
What does the earths tilt do normally?
The Earth's tilt is what causes the seasons.
What is earths axis of rotation (tilt)?
Earth's axial tilt is 23.44°.
How does water temperature differences create deep water currents?
Deep-ocean currents are affected by wind, temperature and earths rotation.
What is earths tilt?
23.5 degrees
What evidence of the tilt of earths axis?
Seasons
What does the earths tilt determine?
mostly climate
What is the earths tilt degrees at?
23.5 degrees
What causes saesons?
The earths tilt at its axis
Does the earths tilt have anything to do with the seasons?
Yes, it does
