Question 5
1.56 / 1.56 pts
water existed in the Earth Solar System material, before Earth was accreted. Thus Earth started its life with water (from
that material)
it was the work of aliens
Earth started with far more water, but lost most of it to space by heavy meteorite bombardment.
Jupiter used to be at a much closer in orbit, and nearly collided with Earth. In this event, Earth gravitationally collected
hydrogen from Jupiter's atmosphere, making Earth's water supply.
Earth received its water after accretion and differentiation, from water rich meteorites in the first 100,000 years
'Geology happens' when there is disequilibrium in a physical system or environment. Which of the
following is an antonym for an environment that should be rich in geologic processes?
Which of the following is an ice giant?
There are debates about how Earth ended up with water. One study (in the weekly reader) suggests that

Question 9
1.56 / 1.56 pts
Our Universe has 100's of billions of galaxies. Each galaxy has 100's of billions of stars. Multiplying
those two numbers together means there are 10's of trillions of stars! My astrophysics colleagues in
SESE tell me that most stars have planets, with many stars having multiple planets. If you assume 200
billion galaxies, each with 200 billion stars, each with one planet, that will give you
40,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 planets. Kind of hard to wrap your head around such a massive
number! It is thought that some percentage of these planets are in what is called the habitable zone,
which is a sweet spot distance from the parent star with a temperature where water can exist in liquid
form. Liquid water is widely viewed as a key component in the building blocks for life as we know it (like
on Earth). Maybe some single digit percent or fraction of a % of the Universe's planets may be in the
habitable zone. Even if it were a suuuuuper small percentage, like 1 millionth of all planets being in the
habitable zone (which is waaaay less than expected), we would still have around
40,000,000,000,000,000 habitable zone planets in the universe! Given this information, what is the
likelihood for alien life elsewhere in the universe?
Earth's present-day mantle, the shell below the crust that extends to the core, is molten magma.
The distance between the Earth and the Moon is such that ____________________.
