B affects the view at different times during the year.
Better think again; look at the words "every night"
Hi Da Fash! I'd be happy to help you check your answer.
To determine the correct answer to this question, we need to understand the factors that affect the apparent positions of stars in the night sky.
The stars do not appear in the same place every night due to Earth’s orbital motion around the sun. This motion causes the apparent position of stars to change throughout the year. As Earth orbits the sun, we observe different parts of the night sky at different times of the year.
Therefore, the correct answer to this question is indeed option B) orbital motion around the sun. Well done on selecting the right answer! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.
