<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>Part 1.</h3>

<em><u>The greater the mass, the greater the gravitational pull.</u></em>  True.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Gravitational force is the attractive force applied on an object by the earth, which is equal to the mass of the object.

Gravitational forces is directly proportional to mass of object.

Hence greater the mass, greater the gravitational force.

<h3>Part 2. </h3>

<u><em>Gravitational pull decreases with an increase in the distance between two objects.</em></u> True.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Gravitational force depends upon the two factors:

Distance, between the object and earth.

Mass of the object.

Gravitational force is inversely proportional to the sequre of distance.

Hence increase in distance will lower the gravitational pull.

<h3>Part 3.</h3>

<em><u>If there were no gravity, planets would collide with another one. </u></em>True

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

As the gravitational pull on planets is the attractive force on planets by sun.

Due to which each planet is moving in distinct separated path.

As if there is no gravitational pull the planet will be no more in any path.

They will move randomly, colliding each other.

<h3>Part 4.</h3>

<em><u>An objects mass is less on the moon than it is on earth. </u></em>True

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

As the gravitational mass depends upon the mass and moon has less mass than earth.

Its gravitational force will also weak, it will attract object with less attraction, making mass of object less.

Because gravitational force is the attractive force applied on an object by the earth, which is equal to the mass of the object.

That's why an object on moon will has less mass than earth.

<h3>Part 5.</h3>

<em><u>The momentum of moving planets does not depends on their masses. </u></em>False

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The momentum in moving planets is known as angular momentum.

Angular momentum = mass × velocity × distance

So according to above formula momentum is directly proportional to mass.

Hence statement if false statement.

<h3>Part 6.</h3>

<em><u>The sun revolves in an orbit within our galaxy</u></em>. True

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Yes, sun revolves around the center of milky way galaxy.

The shape of milky way galaxy is spiral shape and we are moving aroun this galaxy's center at the speed of 828,000 km/hr.

It takes 230 million years to make one complete orbit around the Milky Way at high rates.

hich of the following describes the structure and function of the cell membrane? A. The hydrophilic head groups of the lipid mol
jeka57 [31]

The correct answer is: A. The hydrophilic head groups of the lipid molecules are exposed to the outside of the cell and the cytoplasm, which is a water-like environment. The hydrophobic tails form an oily layer inside the membrane that keeps water out of the cell.

Plasma membrane of the cell is arranged in a bilayer of phospholipids. Phospholipids are amphipathic molecules which means that they have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions. The hydrophilic heads of phospholipids that are faced outward and hydrophobic layer located in the interior of the bilayer together make a good barrier between the interior and exterior of the cell, so the water and other polar or charged substances cannot easily cross the hydrophobic core of the membrane.

Name 4 nitrogen containing substances
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:Nitrogen occurs in all organisms, primarily in amino acids

Explanation:

Nitrogen occurs in all organisms, primarily in amino acids (and thus proteins), in the nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) and in the energy transfer molecule adenosine triphosphate. The human body contains about 3% nitrogen by mass, the fourth most abundant element in the body after oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen.-wikipedia
