The answers would be:

Neptune - It is sometimes farther from the sun than Pluto.

Uranus - It has seasons that last 20 years

Saturn - It has the Shepherd Moons.

Jupiter - It is the largest gas giant

<u>Here is more about the planets:</u>

Neptune becomes farther from the sun than Pluto at times because of the orbit of Pluto. The orbit of Pluto is very elliptical, so at times it crosses the inside the orbit of Neptune. For example, from 1979 to 1999, Neptune was further from the Sun than Pluto.

Each season in Uranus lasts 20-21 years mainly because of its orientation. Unlike other planets, Uranus spins on its side and has a tilt of 93 degrees. A day in Uranus is about 17 Earth hours. During the winter-summer seasons, only one side of Uranus is exposed to the sun, and will not see daylight for 21 years.

Saturn has what we call Shepherd moons. They are called as such because they act like shepherds. They keep the dust and debris that form the rings of Saturn in place. This is also why the edges of the rings of Saturn are well-defined.

Lastly, Jupiter is the largest has giant in our Solar System and is also known as the largest planet in our solar system. It has a diameter of approximately, 143,000 km. Jupiter is made up of mostly Helium and Hydrogen. It has more than 50 moons.

Hypothesize how the properties of water protect the aquatic organisms living in a temperate-
xenn [34]

Answer:

Hydrogen bonds make water molecules spread out when they freeze. This makes ice less dense than water and allows ice to float. If ice did not float then oceans and lakes would freeze from the bottom up, killing marine life by trapping organisms in the ice. When ice floats, it insulates the water below, keeping it at around 4 degrees C or 40F, which does not freeze and allows fish to survive the winter.

Which characteristic is common to both segmented worms and roundworms?
zysi [14]
I believe the answer would be C. Because all worms normally have round bodies, and yes, they can be slender. They also don't really have nostrils, they can breathe through their skin even though they don't have lungs. So C. would be the best answer.
