Orbital velocty = sqrt(GM/r)

Mass and size of mercury is less than that of earth.

On Substituting the values in given formula we will get orbital velocity of mercury = 47.69km/s

Orbital velocity of Earth is 29.78km/s

If carbon dioxide is needed for photosynthesis and water is plentiful, which of the following is likely to occur?
mylen [45]

The right answer is D

These structures (which can be considered as "mini-organs") interactively regulate these exchanges. They are the terrestrial plants that constitute the true interface between the external atmosphere and the internal gas network.
