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.

What impact does the coriolis effect have on the direction the air travels?
Likurg_2 [28]

The Coriolis Effect can be seen in action in the general circulation of the atmosphere. The winds at all latitudes to the north of 0° deflect to the right of their intended path in the Northern Hemisphere. The Coriolis Effect does not impact the wind speed, only the wind direction.

A student visits the beach during a very hot day. She steps on the sand and jumps because it is so hot
Mama L [17]

Answer:

A student visits the beach during a very hot day. She steps on the sand and jumps because it is so hot as a result of "conduction."

Explanation:

The process of the conduction happens because of the flow of kinetic energy from one molecule to the other by direct contact.  When she first steps the beach on the hot sand, after that the energy moves from the hot sand to the cooler body by conduction. While walking on the sand for few time, the feet will feel hot. The movement of the heat takes place from the hot sand to the bottom of the feet by conduction. When the objects come in contact with each other the heat transfers as a result of conduction.

Earth's early atmosphere was primarily composed of
Paul [167]

Answer:

The correct answer is ''carbon dioxide, water vapor and nitrogen.''

Explanation:

About 4.5 billion years ago, Earth was a very geologically active planet. So many volcanic fumes formed the primitive atmosphere, which was mostly made up of water vapor, carbon dioxide, sulfur, and nitrogen. At this point, oxygen was barely present and the oceans did not yet exist. The primitive atmosphere is the one before the Precambrian, it was reductive, that is, it lacked free oxygen, and only had ammonia, methane and hydrogen, the high temperature of the atmosphere in its early stages facilitated the reaction of these gases to form organic compounds from which life may have emerged. UV rays passed, because ozone did not exist.
