Positions of nearby stars shift slightly back and forth each year.

A distance galaxy rises in east, sets in west each day.

We sometimes see a crescent Jupiter.

Explanation:

Mercury it can seen from the Earth but no it phases.

Moon is seen in all parts of the Earth, the only difference is that in north pole the stars moves parallel to the horizon.

By the rotation of Earth the relative position of stars changes a little bit.

In the north pole a galaxy can be observed and in the south pole 2 galaxies.

Jupiter is one of the planets that can be seen from Earth in some seasons and it changes the position due to the rotation of planets around the sun.

A planet beyond Saturn is not possible to be observed from Earth just with the naked eye.

The plate labeled with A is the South American plate, the one labeled with B is the African plate, and the one labeled with C is the Australian plate.

Explanation:

The three plates that are marked on this map are the South American, African, and Australian (Indo-Australian) plates. All of these three plates have a core of continental crust which is surrounded by oceanic crust. The three continents on these plates are South America, Africa, and Australia (plus the subcontinent of India). Despite the three continents being separated by oceans between them at present, it was not like that throughout the past.

  • In the distant past these three continents were merged, being part of Gondwanaland, accompanied by India and Antarctica as well.
  • Divergent boundaries arose between them though, so they started moving apart and gradually formed new continents.
  • As it stands, there is no evidence that these plates will merge again in the next few million years, as the South American plate moves west, the African is actually splitting into two plates, and the Australian is moving toward northeast.
