<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.

What parts of a nucleotide make up the backbone of a nucleic acid? pairs of nitrogen bases pairs of sugars sugar and nitrogen ba
mixer [17]
A DNA molecule consists of two strands of nucleotides twisted together to form a double helix. The sugar-phosphate backbone is found on the outside of this helix and the bases are found braching towards the middle. Hydrogen bonds join the thenitrogenous bases and hold the two strands together.

Therefore your answer is sugar and phosphate.

Give the two ways nitrogen can be fixated so plants can use it to grow.
Maurinko [17]

\huge\mathfrak\red {Answer:}

<h2>Fixation</h2>

Nitrogen in its gaseous form (N2) can’t be used by most living things. It has to be converted or ‘fixed’ to a more usable form through a process called fixation. There are three ways nitrogen can be fixed to be useful for living things:

<h3>Biologically: </h3>

Nitrogen gas (N2) diffuses into the soil from the atmosphere, and species of bacteria convert this nitrogen to ammonium ions (NH4+), which can be used by plants. Legumes (such as clover and lupins) are often grown by farmers because they have nodules on their roots that contain nitrogen-fixing bacteria.

<h3>Through lightning: </h3>

Lightning converts atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia and nitrate (NO3) that enter soil with rainfall.
