B Correct answer
Explanation

Earth's revolution around the sun, combined with its 23.5° axial tilt, causes seasonal changes throughout the year. Different parts of Earth receive varying amounts of sunlight intensity as it orbits, creating the four seasons. Days and nights are caused by Earth's rotation on its axis, not its revolution around the sun.
