Is Our Atmosphere Unique? The planet Jupiter has the biggest atmosphere in our solar system. Jupiter’s atmosphere is composed of 90% hydrogen and 9.9% helium and .1% other gases such as sulfur‚ methane‚ ammonia‚ and water vapor. It is able to hold its atmosphere in because of its massive gravitational pull that is around 2.5 times stronger than earth’s pull. To put that into perspective‚ if you weigh 100 pounds on earth you would weigh 250 pounds on Jupiter. The atmospheric layers are the

To what extent is the climate of the British Isles a product of the air masses that affect it? (40 marks) The British Isles are a group of islands located off the north-western coast of continental Europe. The climate is usually considered to be temperate maritime; however‚ the weather is very changeable from place to place and from time to time. Air masses greatly affect the weather experienced in the British Isles and therefore‚ its climate. An air mass is a body of air with uniform levels of temperature

Tundra climate areas experience a very harsh winter and a cool summer. During the summer‚ much of the snow and ice melts and forms soggy marshes and bogs. However‚ some of the deeper parts of the soil stays frozen even

planet less dense than water. Saturn spins faster than any other planet except Jupiter‚ completing a rotation roughly every 10 and half hours. The rapid spinning causes Saturn to bulge at its equator and flatten at its poles making it the flattest of the planets. The planet is 13‚000 km wider at its equator than between the poles. In Roman mythology Saturn was the father of Jupiter‚ King of the gods. This is interesting because Saturn and Jupiter are similar in so many respects‚ including size and

two new cells are not completely formed. The nuclear envelope disintegrates‚ centrioles begin to move to opposite poles of the cell and spindle fibres start to appear. Metaphase II Spindle is fully formed and chromosomes line up separately at the equator of the cell due to the spindle fibres. Anaphase II The centromeres divide and the spindle fibres pull the chromatids to opposite poles of the cell Telophase II Four daughter cells are now formed.

The shape of the Earth is very close to that of an oblate spheroid‚ a sphere flattened along the axis from pole to pole such that there is a bulge around the equator. Hexagons: Hexagons are six-sided polygons‚ closed‚ 2-dimensional‚ many-sided figures with straight edges. For a beehive‚ close packing is important to maximise the use of space. Hexagons fit most closely together without any gaps; so hexagonal
