How does a straight alignment between Earth, the Sun, and the moon impact the tides on Earth?
Speed increases the closer Earth is to the sun and decreases the farther it is from the sun
It produces the greatest change in high tides and low tides
Mercury
because the plane of the moon's orbit is tilted from the Earths elliptical plane
The winter solstice
It is winter in the southern hemisphere due to the tilt of Earth's axis
They all formed from the same interstellar cloud
to produce their own food
Why do green plants require solar energy?
Speed increases the closer Earth is to the sun and decreases the farther it is from the sun
It produces the greatest change in high tides and low tides
Mercury
because the plane of the moon's orbit is tilted from the Earths elliptical plane
The winter solstice
It is winter in the southern hemisphere due to the tilt of Earth's axis

In December, the South Pole is tilted closer to the Sun at any other time of the year and the North Pole is tilted the furthest from the Sun. What is the Northern hemisphere experiencing at that time?
Speed increases the closer Earth is to the sun and decreases the farther it is from the sun
It produces the greatest change in high tides and low tides
Mercury
because the plane of the moon's orbit is tilted from the Earths elliptical plane
The winter solstice
It is winter in the southern hemisphere due to the tilt of Earth's axis

Why is the Sun's composition similar to that of the gas giant planets?
Speed increases the closer Earth is to the sun and decreases the farther it is from the sun
It produces the greatest change in high tides and low tides
Mercury
because the plane of the moon's orbit is tilted from the Earths elliptical plane
The winter solstice
It is winter in the southern hemisphere due to the tilt of Earth's axis

Which statement decribes the motion of Earth around the Sun?
Speed increases the closer Earth is to the sun and decreases the farther it is from the sun
It produces the greatest change in high tides and low tides
Mercury
because the plane of the moon's orbit is tilted from the Earths elliptical plane
The winter solstice
It is winter in the southern hemisphere due to the tilt of Earth's axis
They all formed from the same interstellar cloud
to produce their own food
Why does Earth experience precession?
Speed increases the closer Earth is to the sun and decreases the farther it is from the sun
It produces the greatest change in high tides and low tides
Mercury
because the plane of the moon's orbit is tilted from the Earths elliptical plane
The winter solstice
It is winter in the southern hemisphere due to the tilt of Earth's axis
They all formed from the same interstellar cloud

Which planet is moving fastest in its orbit?
Speed increases the closer Earth is to the sun and decreases the farther it is from the sun
It produces the greatest change in high tides and low tides
Mercury
because the plane of the moon's orbit is tilted from the Earths elliptical plane
The winter solstice
It is winter in the southern hemisphere due to the tilt of Earth's axis
