I would say its because Saturn is so far away from the Sun and when it orbits the Sun its like 9.5 NU

A year on Saturn is so much longer than a year on Earth because Earth is closer to the sun and it's orbit is smaller than Saturn's.

Predict how results would change if the field were watered daily. A. Nothing would change. B. All the plants would increase in n

iragen [17]

Answer: B

Explanation:

I'm not sure, but I'd say that the best answer choice would be B because most of the plants would grow, and none would die off. The smaller plants would grow, and would grow in, and most if not all of the larger would just continue to grow, if they aren't already full grown.

Hope this helped!

Photosynthesis is the main method by which primary production takes place in an ecosystem. What abiotic factor is a beneficial b

Triss [41]

The significant abiotic by-product of photosynthesis is oxygen. The main product of the process is glucose, which the plant uses as food. The general equation for photosynthesis is:

6CO2 (carbon dioxide) + 6H2O (water) = C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6O2 (oxygen)

It can be seen that plants are important to sustain life because they reduce the earth's carbon dioxide, and replace it with oxygen.

Plants can produce their own food so they are called?

geniusboy [140]

Plants are called producers. They produce their own food using sunlight, and they convert it into sugar-like substances. :3

What major factors affected earth's changing climates?

Flura [38]

I just had this answer but it hasn't been graded. I put 1. Meteor impacts, 2. volcanic gases and 5. Milankovitch cycles. I didn't put earthquakes because I wouldn't think it would affect the climate changing since they just affect ground movement.

How the seismic tracings recorded at station A and station B indicate that station A is farther from the earthquake epicenter th

VMariaS [17]

The seismic traces recorded at station A and station B indicate that station A is further from the earthquake epicenter than station B because the ground movement detected at B was greater than that detected at A, with seismic waves more frequent and less frequent respectively.

<h3>Seismograph</h3>

A seismograph is a device that detects ground movements, including those generated by seismic waves. It consists of the basic sensor of the seismographic instruments of which the seismograph and the seismoscope are part. These movements are then recorded in seismographs, which have been plotted graphs called seismographs.

<h3> Propagation speed</h3>

Seismic station A is located 5,400 kilometers from the earthquake's epicenter. How long would it take for the first S wave produced by this earthquake to reach seismic station A? The propagation speed of this type of waves varies with the medium in which they propagate, with typical values of

330 m/s in air
1 450 m/s in water
and 5 000 m/s in granite.

They are not as destructive as S waves or the surface waves that follow them. The propagation speed of these waves is, in general, slightly less than twice that of S waves.

With this information, we can conclude the velocity of propagation of seismic waves and how a seismograph enumerates the distance from the epicenter of an earthquake.
