7 0

Answer: false, uranus is about 62 times as far from the Sun as Mercury

Explanation:

Mercury’s orbit is 47 million km from the Sun.

Uranus’s orbit is ~2.9 billion km from the sun

orbit Uranus/orbit Mercury = 61.7

Imagine an earthworm that has no chaetae. how would the lack of chaetae affect movement of the earthworm?
Usimov [2.4K]

The worm would be unable to burrow and dig through the soil. Chaetae are involved in the locomotion of the worm by giving the worm grip and <span>tools</span> to burrow <span>through</span> the soil. <span> </span>Chaetae <span>are</span> made of chitin project from the body wall <span>on</span> each segment are arranged in 4 pairs and are sited on the ventral surface - two pairs of ventral chaetae are found just either side of the midventral line and two pairs are further out in the ventrolateral position (that is just ventral of the side of the worm).

What role does your skin play in the regulation of body temperature?
Murrr4er [49]

Your skin helps regulate our body temperature by causing shivering and sweating. Shivering helps keep your body warm in a cold environment. Sweating helps cool off your body when hot.

Name one major difference between a prokaryote cell and a eukaryote cell
MAXImum [283]
The prokaryote cell is simpler, and therefore smaller, than a eukaryote cell, lacking a nucleus and most of the other organelles of eukaryotes. There are two kinds of prokaryotes: bacteria and archaea; these share a similar structure. 

<span>Nuclear material of prokaryotic cell consist of a single chromosome that is in direct contact with cytoplasm. Here, the undefined nuclear region in the cytoplasm is called nucleoid. </span>

<span>A prokaryotic cell has three architectural regions: </span>

<span>On the outside, flagella and pili project from the cell's surface. These are structures (not present in all prokaryotes) made of proteins that facilitate movement and communication between cells; </span>
<span>Enclosing the cell is the cell envelope – generally consisting of a cell wall covering a plasma membrane though some bacteria also have a further covering layer called a capsule. The envelope gives rigidity to the cell and separates the interior of the cell from its environment, serving as a protective filter. Though most prokaryotes have a cell wall, there are exceptions such as Mycoplasma (bacteria) and Thermoplasma (archaea). The cell wall consists of peptidoglycan in bacteria, and acts as an additional barrier against exterior forces. It also prevents the cell from expanding and finally bursting (cytolysis) from osmotic pressure against a hypotonic environment. Some eukaryote cells (plant cells and fungi cells) also have a cell wall; </span>
<span>Inside the cell is the cytoplasmic region that contains the cell genome (DNA) and ribosomes and various sorts of inclusions. A prokaryotic chromosome is usually a circular molecule (an exception is that of the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi, which causes Lyme disease). Though not forming a nucleus, the DNA is condensed in a nucleoid. Prokaryotes can carry extrachromosomal DNA elements called plasmids, which are usually circular. Plasmids enable additional functions, such as antibiotic resistance. </span>
<span>--------------------------------------... </span>
<span>Eukaryotic cells </span>

<span>Plants, animals, fungi, slime moulds, protozoa, & algae are all Eukaryotic. These cells are about 15 times wider than a typical prokaryote and can be as much as 1000 times greater in volume. The major difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is that eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound compartments in which specific metabolic activities take place. Most important among these is a cell nucleus, a membrane-delineated compartment that houses the eukaryotic cell's DNA. This nucleus gives the eukaryote its name, which means "true nucleus." Other differences include: </span>

<span>The plasma membrane resembles that of prokaryotes in function, with minor differences in the setup. Cell walls may or may not be present. </span>
<span>The eukaryotic DNA is organized in one or more linear molecules, called chromosomes, which are associated with histone proteins. All chromosomal DNA is stored in the cell nucleus, separated from the cytoplasm by a membrane. Some eukaryotic organelles such as mitochondria also contain some DNA. </span>
<span>Many eukaryotic cells are ciliated with primary cilia. Primary cilia play important roles in chemosensation, mechanosensation, and thermosensation. Cilia may thus be "viewed as sensory cellular antennae that coordinate a large number of cellular signaling pathways, sometimes coupling the signaling to ciliary motility or alternatively to cell division and differentiation." </span>
<span>Eukaryotes can move using motile cilia or flagella. The flagella are more complex than those of prokaryotes.

Hope this helps!! (If not I'm sorry!)</span>
