Which occur most lunar or solar eclipse

Biology
1 answer:
Bumek [7]3 years ago

Solar eclipses occur more often than lunar eclipses because in a lunar eclipse, the moon has to be perfectly aligned with both the earth and the sun.

Solar eclipses occur about 2 to 4 times per year, but the area on the ground covered by totality is only about 50 miles wide. In any given location on Earth, a total eclipse happens only once every hundred years or so, though for selected locations they can occur as little as a few years apart.

Eclipses of the Moon by the Earth's shadow occur less often than solar eclipses, however, each lunar eclipse is visible from over half the Earth. At any given location, you can have up to three lunar eclipses per year, but some years there may be none.

In any one calendar year, the maximum number of eclipses is four solar and three lunar.

Chromosomes only exist inside gametes true or false
netineya [11]

The male human has a sperm cell and the female has an egg cell. The cells from the male and female that combine to form a zygote are called gametes. The human sperm and egg cells each contain 23 chromosomes. . A combination of gametes forms a zygote with 46 chromosomes. The type of cell division that produces gametes with half the normal chromosome number is the meiosis. Meiosis is the type of cell division used in sexual reproduction. It will occur in the testes and ovaries.<span>Chromosomes get shuffled when eggs and sperm are made. Though most adult cells contain two sets of chromosomes, sperm and egg cells are different. These special cells have just one chromosome from each pair. Which chromosome they get from each pair is random, making each sperm or egg cell unique. There is also a bit of mixing before the chromosomes are sorted into individual sperm or egg cells. Chromosomes from each pair in a mother or father, respectively, make contact and exchange pieces of DNA, creating hybrid chromosomes. </span>

Hunter-Best [27]
Evolution connection happens when we act according to how we feel. Evolution explanation is based on reproductive fitness. 

Using the example of "falling in love", evolution connection and evolution explanation is compatible with one another. 

When we fall in love, we tend to give our best to our significant other. We invest emotions and time in keeping the relationship stronger which will ultimately lead to marriage and produce offspring.

Falling in love is part of evolution connection. Getting pregnant and giving birth to a child is part of evolution explanation as a result of a successful evolution connection.
