<span>Wind- Dandelions are a good example as well as maple leaves and tumble weed are blown around by the wind and drops it's seeds as it travels. Water- A coconut will travel thousands of miles on the oceans current to be washed ashore on some distant island. Also the rivers and streams carry some fruits that are buoyant. Animals- either by eating the fruit and seeds and deposit them as droppings away from the mother plant. Squirrels collect acorns and bury them and sometime forget where they are buried. Some plants have stickers on them and stick to the fur of animals to fall off later. Humans collect seeds and plant them in fields and gardens. These are a few examples. :)

How are compounds related to elements?

kap26 [50]

Answer:

An element is a material that consists of a single type of atom. Each atom type contains the same number of protons. Chemical bonds link elements together to form more complex molecules called compounds. A compound consists of two or more types of elements held together by covalent or ionic bonds.

Explain Mercury is the planet closest to the Sun. Why does it get so cold at night?

alexdok [17]

Answer/Explanation: On Mercury temperatures can get as hot as 430 degrees Celsius during the day and as cold as -180 degrees Celsius at night.

Mercury is the planet in our solar system that sits closest to the sun. The distance between Mercury and the sun ranges from 46 million kilometers to 69.8 million kilometers. The earth sits at a comfy 150 million kilometers. This is one reason why it gets so hot on Mercury during the day.

The other reason is that Mercury has a very thin and unstable atmosphere. At a size about a third of the earth and with a mass (what we on earth see as ‘weight’) that is 0.05 times as much as the earth, Mercury just doesn’t have the gravity to keep gases trapped around it, creating an atmosphere. Due to the high temperature, solar winds, and the low gravity (about a third of earth’s gravity), gases keep escaping the planet, quite literally just blowing away.

Atmospheres can trap heat, that’s why it can still be nice and warm at night here on earth.

Mercury’s atmosphere is too thin, unstable and close to the sun to make any notable difference in the temperature.

Space is cold. Space is very cold. So cold in fact, that it can almost reach absolute zero, the point where molecules stop moving (and they always move). In space, the coldest temperature you can get is 2.7 Kelvin, about -270 degrees Celsius.

Sunlight reflected from other planets and moons, gases that move through space, the very thin atmosphere and the surface of Mercury itself are the main reasons that temperatures on Mercury don’t get lower than about -180 °C at night.
