Answer/Explanation: On Mercury temperatures can get as hot as 430 degrees Celsius during the day and as cold as -180 degrees Celsius at night.
Mercury is the planet in our solar system that sits closest to the sun. The distance between Mercury and the sun ranges from 46 million kilometers to 69.8 million kilometers. The earth sits at a comfy 150 million kilometers. This is one reason why it gets so hot on Mercury during the day.
The other reason is that Mercury has a very thin and unstable atmosphere. At a size about a third of the earth and with a mass (what we on earth see as ‘weight’) that is 0.05 times as much as the earth, Mercury just doesn’t have the gravity to keep gases trapped around it, creating an atmosphere. Due to the high temperature, solar winds, and the low gravity (about a third of earth’s gravity), gases keep escaping the planet, quite literally just blowing away.
Atmospheres can trap heat, that’s why it can still be nice and warm at night here on earth.
Mercury’s atmosphere is too thin, unstable and close to the sun to make any notable difference in the temperature.
Space is cold. Space is very cold. So cold in fact, that it can almost reach absolute zero, the point where molecules stop moving (and they always move). In space, the coldest temperature you can get is 2.7 Kelvin, about -270 degrees Celsius.
Sunlight reflected from other planets and moons, gases that move through space, the very thin atmosphere and the surface of Mercury itself are the main reasons that temperatures on Mercury don’t get lower than about -180 °C at night.

Answer:
Add native plants to a suburban garden because you are adding already flourishing wildlife
Sea Urchins are primary consumers because they eat the kelp
Sun -> Grass -> Rabbit because grass lives off of photosynthesis from the sun and rabbit eats the grass
I think there would be more biomass in grass because there is a lot more spread throughout the savannah while elephants are way bigger there is less of them.
Genotype: 50% Aa and 50% aa
Phenotype: 50% Dimples and 50% no dimples
Explanation: Using a punnet square, we can figure out that the mother is recessive and the father is heterozygous. Putting the mother at the top of the square and the father on the side, you end up with the results above by crossing each square with the corresponding letters. It's okay if the letters end up backwards. Just be sure to face them the right direction, capitals being first once you finish.
Hope this helps!
