Answer:

There are two primary factors: size and distance from the Sun. Gravity helps planets and moons to hold on to their atmospheres, so small planets/moons such as Mars and the Moon have thin atmospheres. The reason why the outer planets are larger is probably down to two major factors. The first is simply the amount of material available which may be accreted to a planet. Clearly, the further away from the Sun, the longer the orbit (twice as far means an orbit twice the physical length).

It provokes the appropriate actions for rapid response such as: increased heart rate, dilated bronchi to promote the entry and exit of gases, increased sweating, decreased intestinal peristalsis to decrease the energy invested in digestion, vasoconstriction of the arteries, dilation of the pupils so that more light enters, etc.

For this reason axons quickly send a response to all these organs through the sympathetic nervous system.

An igneous rock can either change into a sedimentary or into a metamorphic rock; just the same that a sedimentary rock can change into an igneous rock or metamorphic rock. Factors like heat, water, and air can break and form new types of rocks in a continuous cycle. <span>
