What is the relationship between daylight and nighttime on an equinox?
Days become shorter from the Summer Solstice in June [the longest day of the year] through the Winter Solstice in December [the shortest day of the year] , when the days begin growing longer again. [At the Vernal and Autumnal Equinoxes, midway between the solstices, the days and nights are of equal lengths.]
How does the length of daytime and nighttime affect the season change?
It all depends on your latitude. The closer you are to the equatorial latitudes, the more your days are equal in numbers closer to 12. In all other latitudes, the further you are up towards the poles, the larger the difference is of daytime and nighttime. At the equator, the days and nights are pretty much the same in summer and winter. But near the poles, summer is always in daylight and winter is always in darkness.

The length of daylight or nighttime hours does not affect the seasons, but the seasons affect the length of daytime and nighttime hours. During the summer, the earth is tilted more toward the sun, resulting in longer daytime hours. During the winter months, the earth is tilted away from the sun, resulting in shorter days and longer nights.
