It is one of the four terrestrial planets and has the largest Moon in the solar system. Earth has abundant volcanic activity because of its size in comparison to the other terrestrial planets. With the abundance of water and oxygen‚ Earth ’s atmosphere stays in balance and is able to continue supporting life. The liquid oceans help to remove carbon dioxide

When the project was over‚ it was nearly all decomposed. In the terrestrial chamber‚ the flora flourished the entire time. Our plants were always green. We planted a few mung bears‚ which by the end‚ had grown out of the tip. Overall‚ our eco-column was a success. b) The water in the aquatic chamber changed drastically

Hippo’s have a large‚ multi-chambered stomach that takes up about two thirds of their abdominal cavity. The food a hippo ingests is then digested by bacteria in the stomach. The hippo is then able to digest the bacteria. Unlike the hippos’ terrestrial ancestors that need to graze on land all day to get enough nutrients‚ the hippo cannot stay out of the water very long during the day. Therefore‚ the hippos go on land at night to graze. The first chamber of the stomach has a thick lining that works
