What direction does the moon revole around earth​

Biology

Answer: The direction the moon revolves around the earth is Prograde direction.

Explanation: The moon orbits the Earth once every 27.322 days. It also takes approximately 27 days for the moon to rotate once on its axis. As a result, the moon does not seem to be spinning but appears to observers from Earth to be keeping almost perfectly still. Scientists call this synchronous rotation.  The side of the moon that perpetually faces Earth is known as the near side. The opposite, or "back" side is the far side. Sometimes the far side is called the dark side of the moon, but this is inaccurate. When the moon is between the Earth and the sun, during the new moon phase, the backside of the moon is bathed in daylight.  The orbit and the rotation aren't perfectly matched, however. The moon travels around the Earth in an elliptical orbit, a slightly stretched-out circle. When the moon is closest to Earth, its rotation is slower than its journey through space, allowing observers to see an additional 8 degrees on the eastern side. When the moon is farthest, the rotation is faster, so an additional 8 degrees are visible on the western side.

Which of the following statements correctly relates mutations and survival rates of plants?
kiruha [24]
The third one is the right answer.
Mutations appear randomly and these mutations can either have possitive, negative or neutral impact on the individual's survival. The environment of the individual amongst other factor determine the net effect of the mutation. For example:
A mutation on a shade plant for bigger leaves would have a possitive impact on the plants survival due to the increase of the photosynthetic tissue area. On the other hand the same mutation on a desert plant would have a negative impact on the plant's survival due to the increase of the leaf area which leads to increased water evaporation off the plant.
