At high latitudes, in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, seasonal shifts in input of solar energy produce __ with low average temperatures and shorter day lengths and _ with high average temperatures and longer day lengths.

The season occurs on earth because of the tilt of the earth's rotational axis. There occurs variation in season from one place to another depending upon various factors, in both the northern and the southern hemispheres.

In the higher latitudinal areas, in both the hemispheres, there occurs winter and summer season. During the time of winter in the northern hemisphere, the earth comes closer to the sun, but because of the tilt of the earth's rotation axis, it can reflect the majority of the incoming solar radiation back into space. The winters are usually characterized by the occurrence of low average temperature and the duration of daylight is much shorter.

On the other hand, during the time of summer, the earth is at the furthest from the sun, but most of the solar radiation easily enters the earth's atmosphere. It is due to which the average temperature increases and the duration of daylight are longer.

At high latitudes, in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, seasonal shifts in input of solar energy produce ________ with low average temperatures and shorter day lengths and _______ with high average temperatures and longer day lengths.
