A newly discovered solar system is found 600 billion kilometers from the sun. How many AU

1 answer:

3 0

1 AU means 1 astronomical unit or the aproximate distance from the earth to the sun
1AU=149597870.7 kiometers

1 billion=1,000,000,000
600 billion=600,000,000,000


x times 1AU=600,000,000,000
x times 149597870.7=600,000,000,000
solve for x
divide both sides by 149597870.7
x=4010.75
so aprox 4011 AU's

solong [7]

Answer:

a way to inform conservation efforts based on genetic information from species

Explanation:

Genetic studies in wildlife and captivity species provide significant information to understand aspects regarding the biology and ecology of species, especially endangered species. Many discoveries have been useful to solve several taxonomic issues, determine the risk of diseases, and explain reproductive problems, among other problems. What is even more important is that genetic knowledge helps to plan management programs and conservation. Together with other areas related to behavior and conservation, genetic knowledge provides the basis to carry out successful conservation strategies.
