Answer:
The Earth is different because it has life on it…obviously. And the factors that make it so, is why it is regarded as a fragile planet.
Explanation:
For example, one of the reasons Earth supports life is its location in the solar system. The venerable Habitable Zone. If the earth was, say in Venus’ orbit for example, runaway greenhouse effect would create so much heat, it would not be able to hold surface water.
So we’re lucky to be in the correct distance from the Sun, however, distance is not the only factor here. If the planet was covered in ice for example, its reflectivity (also called albedo) would cause the surface temperature to be either cool, if albedo is high and vice versa.
So, again, we’re lucky to have just the right amount of surface reflectivity. How about our atmosphere? The atmosphere provides us with life sustaining weather, temperature regulation and shields us from deadly radiation. The composition of our atmosphere is crucial in how atmosphere interacts with solar radiation. Some gases, such as Carbon Dioxide and Water vapor, allow visible light to pass through which is good for those important things like…seeing. Unfortunately, these same gases prevent radiation from being reflected back out into space in what is referred to as The Greenhouse Effect. Every planet with an atmosphere has this at different degrees and is what heats up the planets. The dissipation of the greenhouse gases also determines for how long the planet will retain its heat, for example, water vapor may take a week while Carbon dioxide takes about 100 years. Again, luckily for us, we only have a trace amount of Carbon dioxide, less than 0.1% of it.
How about the one ingredient that we can’t do without? Oxygen? It turns out that we don’t have that much in the atmosphere. Only about 21% of our atmosphere contains oxygen. If we had less, we would have weak hearts, prone to diseases, slow and probably still be in the dark ages. If there was too much of it and someone farted, the atmosphere would simply combust and murder everyone since oxygen is highly reactive. The highest oxygen content that could be safely stored in our atmosphere is about 35%. Luckily we have giant recycling plants called…well, plants. We also have oxygen reserves in our oceans, crust and beneath ice caps.
The odds for all these factors that have occurred on our little blue marble, albeit over millions of years, to be replicated on another planet and support life as we know on earth is literally a 1 in a not-happening.
All these things are maintained by a very delicate natural balance and can unfortunately be undone by both natural and man-made effects. Hence, our planet is very fragile.

Answer:
The migration during the 20th century has been mostly from less-developed (poor) countries to more-developed countries.
Explanation:
A is correct because during the 20th century, with the migration policies being made much more friendly and open, the people from the less-developed countries where the living conditions were terrible, to the more-developed countries where they could have much better lives.
B is not correct because it is actually the opposite, where people from different religious beliefs than those of the people of the county of their choice, have migrated and made much more diverse societies.
C is not correct because such migration has not been recorded so far.
D is not correct because the people from more-developed countries usually only visit the less-developed countries as tourists, but very very rarely migrate to them as they are aware of the risks and bad living conditions.
What is the temperature of the Earth at a depth of 5,000 kilometers?
Answer:
1000°C
Explanation:
Identify which of the following factors influence climate in each of these three locations in Maryland: Deep Creek Lake in Western Maryland, Baltimore, and Ocean City. For each factor, explain how it influences the climate of that location in Maryland. Your explanation should also include how the climate of these three locations differ from each other based on the factors. Use this list of factors to guide your response.
- elevation or altitude
- prevailing global wind patterns
- topography
- proximity to large bodies of water
- ocean currents
- latitude
- geographic features such as mountains
please someone help!!!
Answer:
Deep Creek Lake, in Western Maryland, is located in the middle of the Appalachians, and as a result, has a marked continental climate, with very clear four seasons, with hot summers, and cold winters.
Baltimore is located in the center of Maryland, relatively close to the ocean, but inland enough to also have some continental influences. In general, the climate of Baltimore is in the transition between subtropical and temperate.
Ocean City in Maryland, is in front of the Ocean, and at the lowest elevation of the three. For this reason, it has the mildest climate among the three, because the ocean has a moderating effect. This means warmer winters, and milder summers.

What is a chief motive for closing factories in America to open factories in less-developed countries, "outsourcing" jobs once done here?
a
People in less-developed countries work for less money; cheap labor.
b
American companies just love to lay-off American workers.
c
American workers are greedy and unappreciative of minimum wage
d
People in less-developed countries want the same wages as American workers
Answer:
a . People in less-developed countries work for less money; cheap labor.
Explanation:
The chief motive for closing factories in America to open them up in less-developed countries is because people in less-developed countries work for less money and hence cheap labor.
Factories in less developed countries can have more work done with lesser amount of money since the work force are more willing to negotiate little pay. This makes production cost lesser and the factories can make more profit per product. Although, the choice of the less developed economy often relies on the availability of raw materials also.When raw materials are available, and the environment to do business is friendly, companies would be drawn to harness the cheap labor in a particular place.
m∠POQ = 24 and m∠POR = 59,
what is m∠QOR?
Answer:
83
Explanation:
POQ+POR = QOR
24+59=83
The measure of m∠QOR given that m∠POQ = 24 and m∠POR = 59 is 25degrees.
This question bothers on lines and angles in geometry. Geometry is a branch of mathematics which deals with the measurement of lines, angles and properties of shapes.
From the question, we are given the following:
M∠POQ = 24
m∠POR = 59
Required
m∠QOR
To get the measure of m∠QOR, we will use the expression
m∠POR = m∠POQ + m∠QOR
Substitute the given values into the expression
59 = 24 + m∠QOR
m∠QOR = 59 - 24
m∠QOR = 25°
This shows that the measure of m∠QOR is 25degrees.

explain the difference between wild and domesticated animals and plants.
Answer:
the demesticated animals and plants arent wild and are eaither safe to eat or to keep as pets
Explanation:
Answer:
Well, here is an example of a major difference between a domestic and wild animal.
Explanation:
Wild horses handle their hooves by traveling long distances (usually around 20 - 50 miles a day) over rough ground. This keeps their hooves healthy by building hard, durable hooves that don't need shoeing or annual trimming of the hoof. Also, natural selection only permits the survival of the strongest and the fittest. So wild horses also tend to have genetically healthier hooves.
However, our domesticated horses are not typically born with hooves like their wild cousins because they are bred for other traits and other reasons and don't have access to the same environment as wild ones do, such as rough terrains and the possibility to roam on long distances. This means more fragile hooves that require our care to keep them healthy.
Have a great day!
How would a historian use this political map to study Roman civilization?
to understand Roman forms of government
to determine how the Roman Empire expanded over time
to determine how much wealth the Roman Empire had
to understand how geography affected Roman culture
Answer:
Correct answer is to determine how the Roman Empire expanded over time .
Explanation:
To determine how the Roman Empire expanded over time is the correct answer as it refers to the spreading of Roman civilization across different regions, areas and even continents. With its spreading Romans spread language, religion and culture.
First option is not correct as we can't conclude what is the form of government in certain country through map.
Third option is also not correct because those data can't be find in the map.
Fourth option is also not correct as we can't understand the affection of geography on the culture through maps that much.

what is the theory for formation of fossil fuel plz help
A:cabon dioxide levels decreased, resulting in nitrogen fixation
B:earth cooled, changing oxygen to carbon
C:fossil fuels are the remnants of organisms that lived a long time ago and were buried, heated, and formed into hydrocarbons
D:fossil fuels arrived on earth from comets and asteroids
Answer:
The theory of the formation of fossil fuels is that fossil fuels are the remnants of organisms that lived a long time ago and were buried, heated, and formed into hydrocarbons.
Explanation:
A is not correct because the nitrogen is not a gas that is dominant in fossil fuels.
B is not correct because the oxygen can not turn to carbon in any manner.
C is correct because the consensus about the formation of fossil fuels is that after the organisms were dying out, they were getting buried (usually in the soft layers of the ocean floor), over time with the higher temperatures and pressure from below managed to change their structure and create hydrocarbons.
D is not correct because there hasn't been any evidence so far that there are fossil fuels on comets and asteroids.
Answer:
The theory of the formation of fossil fuels is that fossil fuels are the remnants of organisms that lived a long time ago and were buried, heated, and formed into hydrocarbons.
