Why How are there both climate regions fromcaused by both axial tilt and weatheralso by climate circulation cells?

So Earth has an axial tilt and that creates weather regions. For example, approximately 23 degrees north and south, approximately the same as the planetsplanet's axial tilt, will give you the tropics. This creates a band around the Earth of warm wet climate. But then there are these climate cells as well. The Hadley cell occurs at 30 degrees north and south. This apparently creates low pressure and high pressure zones of hot air rising, condensing with rain, falling and cooling, etc.

So what is the difference between the 23 degrees and the 30 degrees? I thought that the tropics are created because of atthe 23 degrees of tilt which also causes seasons? But then theythe tropics are also created because of Hadley cells?? They seem to have the same effectresult with 2 completely different systemscauses. Why are there both? And And what happens between 23 and 30 degrees?

why Why are there both climate regions from axial tilt and weather cells?

sorry if this has been asked before but i cant find an answer for this anywhere. So earthEarth has an axial tilt and that creates weather regions. forFor example, approxapproximately 23 degdegrees north and south, approxapproximately the same as the planets axial tilt, will give you the tropics. thisThis creates a band around the earthEarth of warm wet climate. But then there are these climate cells as well. The hadleyHadley cell occurs at 30 degdegrees north and south. This apparently creates low pressure and high pressure zones of hot air rising, condensing with rain, falling and cooling, etc.

So what the difference between the 23 degdegrees and the 30 degdegrees? I thought that tropics are created because of at 23 degdegrees tilt which also causes seasons? butBut then theyrethey are also created because of hadleyHadley cells? They seem to have the same effect with 2 completely different systems. whyWhy are there both? andAnd what happens between 23 and 30 degsdegrees? im so confused.
