    Answer: 2. They receive less direct sunlight than the equator.

    Different parts of the earth receives different amounts of sunlight. It depends upon the angle at which the light energy from the sun strikes the surface of the region. The sunlight strikes the surface of the pole which exhibit a slant surface because the sunlight hit with few rays and they are less focused at the slant area is less heated. Hence, 2. They receive less direct sunlight than the equator is the correct option.
