The farthest away body from the earth among the following is the closest star.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The star closest to earth is Proxima Centauri and the distance between Proxima Centauri and earth is 40 trillion km

The distance between earth and Uranus changes regularly, with 2.6 billion km being the closet and 3.2 billion km being the farthest distance between earth and Uranus.

Planets arranged in order according to the distance from sun are

Mercury, Venus, Earth,Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune.

Hence there is no doubt the moons of Jupiter will be closer to the earth the planet Uranus is.

Asteroid belt is between the planets Mars and Jupiter. The largest asteroid in the asteroid belt will be closer to the earth than Uranus is. But the distance between earth and Proxima Centauri is greater than the distance between earth and Uranus.

Thus we can conclude that among all the given options, the closest star is the farthest from earth.

Which element is essential to making up all organic molecules?.

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

This element is carbon.

Explanation:

You might be quick to think the answer is something like hydrogen and oxygen because both form to make water. But understand that the question is not asking about important elements in life, just which element makes up organic molecules. This element happens to be carbon.

It's important to understand that carbon is lucky in that it has 4 valence electrons and is able to bond with other important elements, like F, N, and especially H. The bond between C-H is essential in organic chemistry because it represents the structure of an organic molecule and helps with the IUPAC naming of organic molecules. It also suffices to say that there is a cycle for carbon in the carbon cycle, which transports carbon from one place in our world to the other.

So, it suffices to say that carbon is in fact essential for making up organic molecules.

Define hemianatropous with example

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Hemianatropus is half-anatropous in which someone is having or being a plant ovule inverted so that the micropyle is bent down to the funiculus to which the body of the ovule is united. An example is a fly trapper turning a 90 degree angle of its body function.

Explanation:

I apologize if this is wrong, I have no idea what this is but you could look up the word on the internet if you are having problems still.
