Answer:

Explanation:

Terresterial comes from the greek work <em>"terra", </em>which means Earth. So when you hear the word "<em>terresterial </em>" think that it means "like Earth". More specifically, <u>it means that a planet is </u><u>SOLID</u><u>, like the Earth is</u>. So, to figure out the answer to your question, let's list the planets starting with the ones closest to the sun and work out way out toward deep space. We can also describe each planet a bit as we list them.

<u>Mercury</u> - Closest to the Sun and, because of that, its very hot here. A lot of the ground on this planet is lava made of molten metal which is a liquid BUT there is also solid ground so it is terresterial. ✓

<u>Venus</u> - 2nd closest to the Sun. There is ground here, so it's terresterial. ✓

<u>Earth</u> - 3rd closest to the sun. There is solid ground here too so... Terresterial ✓

<u>Mars</u> - Also Solid. Terresterial ✓

<u>Jupiter</u> - Jupiter is made of Gas. If you went there, there would be nothing solid to walk on, but instead simply pass through it like it was a cloud. Therefore it is NOT terresterial

<u>Saturn</u> - Also a "Gas Giant" plant. (They are called gas giants because these planets are huge! You could fit 764 planet Earths inside of Saturn and over 1300 Earths could fit inside Jupiter!) Gas = NOT terresterial

<u>Uranus</u> - Another Gas Giant. Not terresterial

<u>Neptune</u> - The last of the gas giant planets and the furthest from the Sun. Again, its made of gas so its... not terresterial!

If you have trouble remembering the order, try memorizing this:

<em>    "</em><em>M</em><em>y   -   </em><em>V</em><em>ery  -  </em><em>E</em><em>pic - </em><em>M</em><em>other - </em><em>J</em><em>ust  -  </em><em>S</em><em>erved  -   </em><em>U</em><em>s   -   </em><em>N</em><em>achos" </em>

Mercury - Venus - Earth - Mars - Jupiter - Saturn - Uranus - Neptune

Let me know if you need any more help! I am a scientist at NASA and my research focuses on all the planets you're currently learning about! Im happy to help out where I can.

How do scientists decide when to change or modify their understanding of a particular topic?​
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

they carry out experiments to understand it

Explanation:

Scientists raise hypotheses which are tested by experiments made under controlled conditions in order to explain a particular topic. When a hypothesis is confirmed by the experimental data, the evidence obtained from this experiment provides the basis to increase the scientific knowledge about a particular issue. In consequence, experimentation can be considered as a critical step in the scientific method and research aims to advance knowledge of a particular phenomenon by confirming a hypothesis, which must be testable (i.e. verifiable as a result of further experimentations).

why does the complexity of gene regulation mirror the complexity of the organism in which it is found?​
Nataliya [291]

Organisms that are more complex, such as eukaryotes, have cells that are specialized for specific functions. Gene regulation needs to be more complex to produce these specialized cells for complex organisms. Please Mark Me Brainliest

Why were there no living inhabitants on earth for the first billion years?
Nutka1998 [239]

There was no life on Earth for the first billion years because the atmosphere was not suitable for life. Earth's first atmosphere had lots of water vapor but had almost no oxygen. Later, frequent volcanic eruptions put several different gases into the air.
