Answer:

Due to the dense atmosphere

The magnetic field of the earth

Explanation:

Most particles in the solar wind do not reach the earth's surface because the atmosphere is very dense and the protecting magnetic field of the earth.

A solar wind is a burst of energetic particles from the sun which are made up electrons, ions, etc.. They travel at a very high velocity.

The magnetic field of the earth is able to deflect these charged particles away.
In areas such as the pole, the interact with the atmosphere to produce very stunning auroras.

The data table above includes the distance each planet is from the sun. Students in an Earth science class were asked to explain

Serga [27]

Student 4

Explanation:

The sun has less gravitational pull on Neptune because it is farther away. Gravity is the force by which a planet or other body draws objects towards its center.
Gravity keeps all the planets in its position and allows it to move in its orbit.
The force of gravity is inversely proportional to the distance between two objects.

So when the distance increases, the force weakens. Since Neptune approximately 4.8 billion kilometers away from the sun, its gravitational force is very less.

In MendAliens, normal head top is dominant to Bart head top, in which the top of the head is jagged. Suppose a MendAlien homozyg

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The genotypes of the two parents: normal head shape (HH) and Bart head shape (hh)

The genotypes in the F1 generation= Hh

The phenotypes present in the F1 generation= All normal head shape

Explanation:

Let's assume that the allele "H" is responsible for the normal head shape while the allele "h" gives Bart head shape. According to the given information, both the parents are homozygous. The genotype of the parent with normal head shape would be "HH" while that of the one with Bart head shape would be "hh". Since the normal head shape is dominant, all the F1 hybrid progeny would exhibit "normal head shape".
