Answer 1

Earth is the largest inner planets I know

Answer 2

The largest planet overall and the largest terrestrial planet is called Earth. Therefore, option C is correct.

What are terrestrial planets?

Terrestrial planets include Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars because of their compact, stony surfaces that resemble terra firma on Earth. The four innermost planets in the solar system are the four terrestrial planets.

The term "terrestrial planet," "telluric planet," "solid planet," or "rocky planet" refers to a planet that is predominantly made of silicate rocks or metals. The inner planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are closest to the Sun and are recognized by the IAU as terrestrial planets.

Earth-sized and smaller terrestrial planets are rocky, silicate, water, and carbon-based worlds.

The terrestrial planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are distinguished into three layers: a metallic core, a silicate shell (mantle and crust), and a volatile envelope of gases, ice, and, for the Earth, liquid water.

The Himalayas in central Asia are the tallest mountains in the world. But fossils of seashells can be found high in these mountains, far from any ocean. How do you think they got there?
a. At one point in Earth's history the mountains were under water
b. At one point in Earth's history there was a giant tsunami
c. At one point in Earth's history those organisms evolved to climb mountains
d. At one point in Earth's history the mountains formed from a volcanic explosion

Answers

Answer:

a. At one point in Earth's history the mountains were under water.

Explanation:

An ocean is a body of salt water which covers approximately 70% of the Earth's surface. About 97% of the Earth's water is comprised of ocean and as such it is the most prominent and defined feature of the Earth. There are basically four (4) categories of an oceanic basin and these are;

1. The Pacific ocean.

2. The Artic ocean.

3. The Atlantic ocean.

4. The Indian ocean.

A fossil can be defined as the mineral impression or remains of living organisms such as plants and animals that are prehistoric in nature.

The Himalayas in central Asia are the tallest mountains in the world. But fossils of seashells can be found high in these mountains, far from any ocean. These fossils of seashells got there because it is assumed that at one point in Earth's history the mountains were under water.

HOW are humans affecting the water supply?

Answers

Answer:

Humans have had a very negative impact on the water supply.

Explanation:

The water, or rather the freshwater, is found around the globe, in some places more, in some places less, thus its distribution is not equal. Despite this, there is actually more than enough water for all living organisms, including humans. However, that is the case if the water supply remains clean and in good condition, which has been becoming rarer and rarer across the globe.

Human activity, especially after the industrial revolution, has caused enormous damage to the water supplies. More and more water supplies have been polluted, often heavily, while some have been totally depleted or are on the verge to be very soon. The industry, production of electricity, garbage disposal, sewage, agricultural practices, have all led to making perfectly fine water supplies turn into water that if consumed can either cause bad illness or even lead to death. This is something that has to be a priority for the world because if the trend continoues there will soon come a situation where the majority of the world will have no water of proper quality for usage wich will be catastrophic.

9. Which forces do scientists believe are responsible for the movement of Earth's
tectonic plates?

Answers

The main reason why the tectonic plates move is the conversational currents. There is magma between the upper mantle and the asthenosphere that heats up at the upper mantle. The weight is so small that the magma rises with the help of these conversational currents. When the magma has ascended towards the asthenosphere, it has nowhere to go so the magma lies along the asthenosphere. There the magma cools down again because the asthenosphere is colder than the upper mantle, which makes the magma heavier and goes back down to the upper mantle, where the magma heats up again and everything starts all over again and so it goes on over and over again. Scientists have concluded that the earth's gravity causes two other processes that also cause the tectonic plates to move.

Ridge push - in the spreading zones, the sides of the tiles are raised and slide to the side as in a slide.
Slab pull - when a plate is pulled down by gravity in a subduction zone like an anchor.

Space is a much different atmosphere than life on Earth's surface. In space, you are constantly subject to 0-gravity which consequently makes your bones and muscles become gradually weaker as they are not being frequently used. This is why it is so important for astronauts to exercise. On the other hand, life in a desk job is not particularly healthy either. They are similar because you are also not using your muscles and bones to accomplish many tasks. However, they are different because in a desk job, you are still subject to gravity and do have to work harder to stay upright. This is why many of us have bad posture. Space is also different than a desk job because you are constantly moving around, even if it is easier for your muscles.

Compared to life on Earth's surface, space has a very different atmosphere. Because there is no gravity around you at all times when you are in space, your bones and muscles eventually weaken because they are not being utilized as often.

What is the atmosphere?

The term atmosphere is the layers of gases environing a planet or other celestial body. Earth's atmosphere is constituted of about 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and one percent other gases. The atmosphere is a layer of gases that borders Earth. It is held close to the surface of the planet by Earth's gravitational attraction.

For this reason, exercise is crucial for astronauts. However, doing a desk job all day is also not particularly healthy. You also don't perform many

jobs with your bones and muscles, so they are comparable. They are distinct, nevertheless because a desk job

Therefore,  Earth's surface and space have very different atmospheres.

4. Lithosphere

Answers

Answer:

1. Atmosphere ⇒ WESTERLIES

The atmosphere refers to the air surrounding a planet which is a mixture of gases the majority of which in Earth's case are Nitrogen and Oxygen. It is in the atmosphere that the westerlies occur. The westerlies are winds blowing from the west to the east.

2. Biosphere ⇒  GRAZING

The biosphere refers to the world's ecosystem and therefore includes all living and non-living things that the living things rely on for food. This is where grazing occurs as animals feed on plants.

3. Hydrosphere ⇒ TIDES

The hydrosphere refers to the waters of Earth including those on the surface, underground and airborne. Waves occur here on surface water.

4. Lithosphere ⇒ WEATHERING

The lithosphere refers to the surface of the earth that is made of rocks(land). Weathering, which is the process by which rocks are broken down, occurs here.

B. 7−w=89
C. w+89=7
D. w=89−7

Answers

Answer:

A. w - 7 = 89

Explanation:

I think it's w - 7 = 89 because there is a key word in the question and that key word is withdraw. If you withdraw something then that means that it's subtraction. You don't know how much Carla's bank balance was before withdrawing so it's a variable (w). Therefore it's w - 7 = 89.

5. 90% of Mexicans are Roman Catholic. This is an example of a *
A. centripetal force
B. centrifugal force

Answers

Answer:

This is an example of a centripetal force.

Explanation:

Centripetal force, in human geography, is a term that describes actions and processes that lead to unity among the people of a country or a region. Basically, a factor that is able to create a sense of unity and hold people together would be a centripetal force. Religion has often acted like a centripetal force in many countries and regions around the world, and one good example is Mexico.

Mexico has around 90% of its population as followers of Roman Catholicism. This religion came with the Spanish colonizers. It was not just the Spanish that practiced it though, but instead, there was assimilation or even total destruction of the native religions in order to make the colony as homogenous religiously as possible. This led the vast majority of the population in the colony, now an independent country, to follow just one religion, which gave them a sense of unity as they had something they shared on a deep and intimate level.
