Which planet is most similar in temperature to Earth?

Biology
1 answer:
asambeis [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

It depends; If you're asking for very temporary moments on the planet, it would be mercury, because its temperature ranges from 427 degrees to -180 degrees Celcius. If you were to stand just in the right spot at just the right time, its temperature would be the same as the earth's temperature.

But if you are asking about longer periods of time, it would be Mars. Its average temperature is around -60 degrees celcius, but its summer can get up to 20 degrees celcius.

I really hope this helped you.

Answer:

Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: overpopulation, pollution, burning fossil fuels, and deforestation. Changes like these have triggered climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality, and undrinkable water.

Explanation:

So, What Happens if Pollution Continues to Increase? ... Breathing air pollution hampers the functioning of lungs among healthy people resulting in respiratory inflammation and heart problems. Living in a polluted area and breathing toxic air increases the risk of cancer. Air pollution weakens the immune system

Describe the process of altering the genetic variation of a cell using a genetically modified virus for human gene therapy. In t
Len [333]
In human gene therapy, a genetically modified virus (a.k.a. a viral vector) can alter the genetic variation of a cell, but not all viral vectors do.

The process often begins with the delivery of or creation of a segment of viral double stranded DNA (containing the gene you want to introduce). Then typically an enzyme known as an integrase cuts the ends of the segment of viral DNA and also cuts open the cell's DNA. Then the viral DNA is integrated/ inserted into the cell's DNA. The connecting ends are ligated together and adjusted so that the nucleotide base pairs match up.

This in the future may affect the gene pool for instance if the viral DNA (your gene) was inserted in the middle of another gene or important regulatory sequence of the cell DNA, and this alteration may be passed on into offspring and become present in the gene pool, which could have bad effects.

The effects on the gene pool really depends on what the virus ends up doing. For example, it may fix the function of a damaged gene which is the goal, and allow for a working gene to be in the gene pool, which would be good. The problem with gene therapy is that it's difficult to predict 100% what the virus will do every time it is given to a patient.

But it's very important to consider that it will only affect the gene pool if the virus is able to enter and alter germ cells (reproductive cells). If the virus, enters somatic cells (regular body cells) this will not be passed on to future generations. So viruses can be designed to avoid germ cells and avoid this gene pool issue. Also, some viral vectors use viruses that do not integrate their DNA, the cells just express the viral DNA (create the desired protein from it) and over time the viral DNA is degraded/ lost which wouldn't pose this threat.

This is long, but I hope it helped!

What is the outcome for earth after the moon rotates around it?
borishaifa [10]
The Moon appears to Earth as a small crescent, as it rotates around the Earth this expands to a full moon and back to a small crescent. This happens once every 29 days and is called a lunar month. The Moon causes the rise and fall of the ocean's tides on Earth.
