Is being in a "habitable zone" enough to say the planet is habitable for human life? What characteristics would an Earth-like pl

anet need to have to support life? What challenges would we face traveling to and colonizing Kepler-186f, or other Earth-like planets outside of our solar system? Do you think scientists should spend time looking for Earth-like planets before we have the technology to visit them? Why or why not?

Yes because <span>A </span>habitable zone<span> (HZ) in astronomy is a region of space where conditions are best for life to form as on Earth. Planets in these areas are the most likely to have extraterrestrial life. The </span>habitable zone<span> may also be called the "life zone", "comfort zone", "green belt" or "Goldilocks zone".</span>

<span>No, just because it is a "habitable zone" doesn't mean anything. It could just be an area where things come and go they don't know for sure if it is always a habitable zone until they do more studies on the zone and the area around it. For a Earth-like planet to be able to support life it would need a reliable and large source of water. It would also need a source of oxygen and there would need to be a way to plant food/grow food which would also mean that it would have to have good soil to grow it in. I believe that they would have problems traveling because it is a long distance and it would take a while for them to get the supplies together and by the time they got there they would take even longer on research. Yes it would make more since for them to look at planets and do as much visual research as possible then try to get samples of the planet and eventually work on sending people out to further the research.</span>

A positive choice to make to impact one's health is to simply wake up in the morning and get ready, and take time on yourself. That will ensure that you appreciate yourself and will give you a positive mentality throughout the day.

A negative choice to make to impact one's health is to constantly over-think situations, causing stress and an unhealthy state of mind.

A recent study of the marine hawksbill turtle's stomach contents revealed that sponges constitute a major portion of their diet.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

These structures that protect the sponges from most predators, but not turtles, are spicules.

Explanation:

Sponges <em>skeleton</em> is composed of <em>calcium carbonate and siliceous</em> micro-structures called <u>spicules</u>. Their morphology is so varied that it is used in taxonomy for identification and classification.

There are different kinds of spicules:

-         <em>Monoaxonic spicule</em>: needle-shaped, straights or curves

-         <em>Tetraxonic spicules:</em> they have four prolongations

-         <em>Triaxonic or Hexaxonic spicules</em>

-         <em>Poliaxonic spicules </em>

Two terms can be applied to any of these spicules kinds:

-         <em>Megaspicules</em>: They are elongated and compose the main architecture of the sponge skeleton

-         <em>Microspicules</em>: Variable in shape and size, with ancillary functions

Sponges have few predators thank to the spicule structures and their high toxicity. Many of them are capable of perforating soft tissues and producing urticant substances.

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

Is a vicariance event

Explanation:

Even both terms are very similar, there is a difference. A dispersal event occurs when an initial specie travels from one place to another and due to the  environmental factors and the adaptation that need to develop to survive will change into different species. In the other hand, the vicariance, is a process in which there is a specie and it lives in a wide are, but it fragments into groups mainly by the continental drift, so with the passing of time it turns into different characteristics, as the human race.
