<span>If you were to look down at the plane of the solar system from its 'north pole' you would see the planets orbiting the Sun counter clockwise, and rotating on their axis counterclockwise. Except for Venus. Venus would be rotating clockwise as it orbited the Sun counterclockwise. Venus is not alone. The axis of Uranus is inclined so far towards the plane of the solar system that it almost rolls on its side as it orbits the Sun.</span>

The planets in our solar system including the Earth and the Mercury rotates around its axis in the counter-clockwise direction, except for Venus. The Venus rotates around its axis in clockwise direction rather the rotating counterclockwise like the Earth. The tilt of the Venus might be responsible for this rotating direction.

Hence, the answer is 'Venus rotates in clockwise direction and the Earth rotates in counterclockwise direction'.

Which of the following traits do archaeans and bacteria share?
alex41 [277]

Answer:

The correct answer is: E) both B and C.

Explanation:

  • Bacteria and Archaea forms two distinct and different Domains in the Taxonomic classification system.
  • Nuclear envelope that surrounds and protects the genetic material by forming the Nucleus is absent in both Archaea and Bacteria. Both of them possess a region called the Nucleoid where their genetic material is located.
  • Plasma membrane that surrounds the cell and maintains integrity of the cell structure is present in both Bacteria and Archaea. Although the composition of lipid in the plasma membrane is different in each.
  • However, they vary in their cell wall composition. The cell wall of the bacteria is rich in a compound called peptidoglycan while the cell wall of archaea lacks peptidoglycan and is rich in polysaccharides and glycoproteins.

"what factors do you think contribute to animals being exposed to toxins? how can individuals prevent exposure?"
tiny-mole [99]
Depending on whether the animals are in nature or in a home environment, the factors that contribute to animals being exposed to toxins are man-made. Factories contaminate air and water. Combustion from engines pollutes the air. Garbage that is disposed contaminates the air, water and land. Often times, the lure of food for any animal, is what brings the animal into closer human contact, thus increasing the exposure to toxins. For a pet, the home environment and the decisions the pet owner takes to have chemicals like cleaners, fertilizers or pesticides and like motor oil increase exposure to toxins. 

Individuals can prevent exposure for themselves and their pets by decreasing the use of motor vehicles, reducing the amount of garbage and trash produced, being a informed consumer who attempts to purchase more organic, Earth and animal friendly goods and services. Boycott corporations which contribute to the decline of the environment and increase exposure to these toxins. Other simpler ways, in environments with smog or other industrial pollutants, wearing clothing that covers most of the body, including breathing masks, gloves and glasses or goggles.
