Answer

Correct option: B.
Equatorial region
The Earth's shape is spherical. This causes the Sun's rays to strike the Earth's surface at different angles, creating variances in temperatures on Earth. The equator receives the most direct sunlight because sunlight arrives at a perpendicular $(90$ degrees$)$ angle to the Earth.
