Answer:

This is where inflatable heat shields come in. An inflatable heat shield, like the one that NASA is developing, could improve this process drastically. Called the Low-Earth-Orbit Flight Test of an Inflatable Decelerator (LOFTID), this inflatable heat shield is six meters wide, made up of synthetic fibers 15 times stronger than steel, and is designed to unfold and inflate as the spacecraft enters Mars’ atmosphere. Taking up less space than a traditional heat shield, yet being larger on inflation, will enable us to land on Mars safely.Firstly, the habitats will have to be able to create and recycle the right proportions of gases for humans to breathe. The main method that’s been suggested is by recycling the nitrogen and argon that’s present in the Martian atmosphere and adding oxygen to it. The proportion could be 40% nitrogen, 40% argon, and 20% oxygen.The surface of Mars has all the necessary components for the cultivation of plants. It has water and organic compounds that plants need to survive. But it does not have a hospitable atmosphere. Greenhouses that efficiently produce a plant-suitable atmosphere will be a top priority, as this will be the only way to generate food on Mars.

yes

Answer:

  1. Nuclear Propulsion : The longer the journey, the more expensive, difficult, and dangerous the journey is. Fuel, life support systems, and food must all last this duration. So, to make the trip quicker, NASA is working on more effective propulsion systems - which use nuclear thermal propulsion.  Nuclear thermal propulsion provides twice the efficiency of current technology. A propellant like liquid hydrogen is heated up via a nuclear reactor. As the hydrogen is converted into gas, it provides thrust via a nozzle, propelling the spacecraft.
  2. Inflatable Heat Shields : n inflatable heat shield, like the one that NASA is developing, could improve this process drastically. Called the Low-Earth-Orbit Flight Test of an Inflatable Decelerator (LOFTID), this inflatable heat shield is six meters wide, made up of synthetic fibers 15 times stronger than steel, and is designed to unfold and inflate as the spacecraft enters Mars’ atmosphere. Taking up less space than a traditional heat shield, yet being larger on inflation, will enable us to land on Mars safely.
  3. High-tech Martian spacesuits : Future upgrades to address the differences on Mars may include technology for life support functionality in the carbon dioxide-rich atmosphere and modified outer garments to keep astronauts warm during the Martian winter and prevent overheating in the summer season.
  4. Martian home and lab on wheels : Much like an RV, the pressurized rover will have everything inside that astronauts need to live and work for weeks. They can drive in comfortable clothing, tens of miles from the spacecraft that will launch them back to space for the return trip to Earth. When they encounter interesting locations, astronauts can put on their high-tech spacesuits to exit the rover and collect samples and conduct science experiments.
  5. Uninterrupted power : Mars has a day and night cycle like Earth and periodic dust storms that can last for months, making nuclear fission power a more reliable option than solar power. NASA already tested the technology on Earth and demonstrated it is safe, efficient, and plentiful enough to enable long-duration surface missions. NASA plans to demonstrate and use the fission power system on the Moon first, then Mars.

Ganezh [65]
The reason why there is no change in color is that the protein <span>does not react with amylase as it cannot fit into the active sites present in amylase. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option or option "B". I hope that the answer has come to your help.</span>

V125BC [204]

Their main difference is how they form the daughter cells during cytokinesis. During that stage, animal cells form furrow or cleavage that gives way to formation of daughter cells. Due to the existence of the rigid cell wall, plant cells don't form furrows.

Hope this helps, if not let me know. Also, do you have multiple choice answers? If this isn't one let me know the options and I'm sure I can help.
