In Alaska there are fewer hours of daylight in the winter than in the summer?

Yes, in Alaska, winter days are significantly shorter than summer days due to its high latitude. During winter months, some areas experience only a few hours of daylight, or even none at all in places above the Arctic Circle, a phenomenon known as polar night. Conversely, in the summer, Alaska enjoys extended daylight hours, with some regions experiencing continuous sunlight for weeks, known as the midnight sun. This dramatic variation in daylight is a characteristic feature of regions near the poles.
