Saturn has 62 confirmed moons of which 9 are waiting to be officially named. Saturn's largest moon Titan is bigger than both Mercury and Pluto. Titan has a very thick atmosphere which is mostly nitrogen. Earth's atmosphere is also mostly nitrogen. Saturn also has many icy moons like Mimas which has a large crater that is 1/4 the diameter of the moon, and Enceladus which has very dark material covering one side and very bright material on the other side. Some of Saturn's smaller moons help keep Saturn's rings stable by orbiting in or near the rings. These moons are called "shepherd moons" and use their gravity to keep the small ring particles in a stable orbit. Some of the gaps in Saturn's rings are caused by these moons. More moons are constantly being discovered so check the NASA Saturn site for the latest.

ivolga24 [154]
Well, you don't specify the parent traits, so I'll just do one for each...

If both parents are homozygous RR, then all 60 of the babies will be black

If both parents are homozygous WW, then all 60 of the babies will be white 

If both parents are heterozygous RW, then there will be 15 black babies, 15 white babies, and 30 spotted babies. 

If one parent is homozygous RR and one is homozygous WW, then all of the babies will be spotted

If one parent is homozygous RR and one is heterozygous RW, then 30 of the babies will be black, and 30 will be spotted

If one parent is homozygous WW and one is heterozygous RW, then 30 of the babies will be white, and 30 will be spotted.

What would earth’s surface look like if earth did not have an atmosphere?
Dvinal [7]
Earth would basically look like the Moon; minus the craters, of course. This is because with no atmosphere to hold all of the Oxygen near the surface, all life would die off fairly quickly.
