the second-most fastest wind speeds of the planets in the solar-system‚ while Jupiter is first. It takes Saturn 10.5 hours to complete one rotation‚ or one day. This super fast rotation causes Saturn to flatten at its poles and then bulge at its equator. Saturn has at least 62 moons (also called satellites) and the largest of those moons is named Titan. Titan is the second-largest moon in the solar system. It is behind Jupiter’s moon Ganymede‚ the largest moon in the solar system (space.com). Saturn

the homologous pairs towards opposite poles. At telophase l two haploid cells form but the chromosomes are still double. Meiosis ll separates the sister chromatids. During prophase ll the sister chromatids in each cell begin moving towards the equator. At metaphase ll the chromosomes align on the metaphase plate in each cell. The process of anaphase ll pulls the sister chromosomes to opposite poles in each cell. During telophase ll each cell forms a nuclei and cytokinesis splits the cells apart

"Faith is believing what you know ain’t so. (Mark Twain‚ Following the Equator‚ "Pudd’nhead Wilson’s Calendar)" Faith is a belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence and is often associated with religion. Because faith is not supported by proof or evidence‚ it is an irrational belief‚ irrational meaning not governed by reason. This essay will make no statement as to the rationality of religion or the existence of God‚ but it will argue that faith by definition is irrational

Hurricanes are one of the most deadliest storms on Earth and are only called hurricanes when they from over by the Atlantic or Eastern Pacific Ocean.Hurricanes also from near the equator by warm oceans. First the hurricane needs the ocean’s temperature to rise to about eighty degrees from about fifty feet to one hundred sixty five feet below surface (Underwater). Another important key a hurricane needs to form is winds mainly coming from the west (Westward)‚ as this happens the water evaporates due

In Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s poem "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner"‚ the author uses the story of a sailor and his adventures to reveal aspects of life.
