Answer:

The sun rotates around its own axis

Explanation:

The sun is the glowing giant star and it rotates around its own axis. The rotational speed of the sun is comparatively very less in comparison to the earth's rotational speed. It is because the sun is not a solid object like the other planets and is comprised of plasma and gases. The sun is divided into several layers and each layer rotates at a different speed around its axis. The interior layers of the sun rotates faster than the exterior layers. The equatorial region of the sun also rotates comparatively at a faster rate taking 24 days, whereas the polar region takes a longer time to complete one rotation around its axis and is about more than 30 days. Thus, the sun takes 27 days on an average to complete one rotation around its axis.

Atoms can have different numbers of which of the following electrons, protons neutrons or all of the above

OLEGan [10]

Atoms may have different numbers of neutrons. Atoms are the smallest fraction of an element that can exist, and still show the properties of the element. They consists of electrons (negatively charged), protons (positively charged), and neutrons (no charge). The number of electrons is equivalent to the number of protons normally however an atom may loose or pick up electrons and have a positive charge or negative charge. The number of neutrons in the nucleus may vary within a given element to give varieties of atoms we call isotopes.

What is air pressure? At what elevation is air pressure the highest? Why?

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

With greater depth of the atmosphere, more air is pressing down from above. Therefore, air pressure is greatest at sea level and falls with increasing altitude. On top of Mount Everest, which is the tallest mountain on Earth, air pressure is only about one-third of the pressure at sea level.

What differentiates anthropocentric and biocentric views of the environment?

Dafna11 [192]

If we were to differentiate anthroprocentric and biocentric views of the environment you could say that anthroprocentric is more holistic than biocentric. They consider the importance of the environment to human beings. Biocentric sees humans as an individual part of the environment.

Also Biocentric views tend to focus more on biotic factors (living things) and anthroprocentric veer towards the abiotic factors (non-living things).
