I think the inference that could be made is :
2. Earth's orbit has a greater distance between foci than the comet's orbit
both earth and comet has sun as their Foci, and from the diagram, the distance between earth and sun is far greater
Differences between the Troposphere and the Stratosphere:
The troposphere is the lowest level of the atmosphere, so it is in contact with the Earth’s surface. In contrast, the stratosphere is located above the troposphere, so it is not in contact with the Earth’s surface. Humans live in the troposphere, not the stratosphere. People only spend time in the stratosphere is when they are traveling through it on an airplane, or flying through it while riding in a rocket. The air density and air pressure are much lower in the stratosphere. In fact, stratospheric air is too thin for people to be able to survive without pressurized air to breathe.
Answer:
The counties of Michigan are organized in a grid pattern because the internal subdivision of the state followed the pattern of surveying established by the Land Ordinance of 1785, which established a rectangular division of the lands of the Northwest Territory, with the objective of facilitating an equal distribution between settlers who would be sent there to populate the region west of the Appalachians.
Thus, the Northwest Territory began to be subdivided into a rectangular shape, and the counties in this region began to take this shape. So when Michigan was established as a state, its counties (as well as those of the other Midwest states) continued to maintain this rectangular shape.
