Answer with Explanation:
Let's start first with water on the Earth's moon. This is called "lunar water."
The moon was thought to be barren by scientists long time ago. However, they found out that there are actually <em>water reserves located in the shadowed craters.</em> It is said that the formation of this water was possible with the existence of <u>Oxygen atoms in the lunar rocks and minerals. </u>Due to the <u>solar wind</u> that blew into the place, <u>the Hydrogen ions from the wind combined with the Oxygen in order to form water.</u> So, the water that is found here is relatively fresh.
Let's go to "water on Mars." This is said to be <em>more older than the water on the moon</em> and is actually not that pure for it consists of some mixtures of rocks. It is said that billions of years ago, Mars had an abundant supply of water, but due to climate change, the supply didn't last long. As a result, the planet dried out and only the areas in the polar and mid-latitude regions have water<em> (in the form of ice).</em> This ice melts and refreezes, depending on the temperature. This is an evidence that people may possibly live on Mars.
Answer:
2.256
Explanation:
This is a percent change problem. The CO2 emitted by a car using gas is 4.7 MMt per year. The CO2 emitted by a car using corn ethanol made from biomass is 52% less than 4.7 MMt.
Find 52% of 4.7 MMt:
0.52 × 4.7 = 2.444.
Subtract 2.444 MMt from 4.7 MMt:
4.7 − 2.444 = 2.256.
The solution is 2.256 MMt.
This leads to precipitation (rain) :)
Answer:
C & D
Explanation:
C - The Sun has an 11 year solar cycle. When the solar cycle is at a <em>minimum</em>, active regions of the sun are rare and not many solar flares are detected. They dramatically increase as the Sun approaches the <em>maximum</em> part of its cycle.
D - It's the Sun. It's moody. Solar flares are pretty sporadic, they're sudden and often unpredictable.
A marked change in the environment favors some characteristics of plants, animals and microbes over others. These character differences are often genetically based so that favored characteristics may increase in the next generation. The shorter the generation time, the faster this evolutionary change can occur.
