Equator Australia United States North and South Poles
I gave my students this multiple choice question: When nearly vertical rays of solar energy strike a region of the Earth, that area has warm temperatures. What region of the Earth gets nearly vertical rays of solar energy year around?

Only one answer is correct among these 4 choices:
- Equator
- Australia
- United States
- North and South Poles

Could you tell me which one is correct?

Equator
