Hey there!
There's a difference.
The Earth is influenced by the Sun's gravitational pull, and the Moon is influenced by Earth's- as it's a smaller celestial body.
This results in a formation of the Moon orbiting the Earth, while the Earth simultaneously orbits the Sun.
Hope this helps!

Would the Renaissance have started if trade routes between Europe and Asia had remained closed?Explain
Hatshy [7]
Yes, the Renaissance itself was a rebirth of Classical ideology. While the increase in trade did contribute to the progression of Renaissance ideas, the Renaissance began as a cultural movement in Italy around the late 13th Century. The "rebirth" or "Renaissance" of Ancient Greek and Roman philosophy (humanism) is most likely accredited to the arrival of Greek scholars and texts in Florence. The Age of Exploration (when the Europeans began to dominate the trade routes) happened mid-14th century and was inspired by the influx of new ideas brought by the Renaissance.

What caused the landforms found in north america
Maru [420]

Answer:

Well there are many different kinds of landforms found in North America.

Landforms may be classified as depositional or erosional. Depositional landforms  have the character and shape of the deposits  of which they are made. They include  beaches, stream terraces, and alluvial fans  at the foot of mountains. Erosional landforms  are ones that have been created by agents  of erosion such as streams, rain, and ice.  The most widespread erosional landforms are  those made by running water acting over  very long periods of time.

There are more, but given the amount of info I have, I cannot give a more specific answer.

How and why does air pressure change with altitude in the atmosphere? What is the name of the uppermost layer in the atmosphere?
lana [24]

Answer:

Pressure with Height: pressure decreases with increasing altitude. The pressure at any level in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels.

Thermosphere. Between about 53 miles (85 km) and 375 miles (600 km) lies the thermosphere. This layer is known as the upper atmosphere. While still extremely thin, the gases of the thermosphere become increasingly denser as one descends toward the earth
