There are no plants on Mars. We know this because of the rovers we have sent and the satellites we have taking pictures of the planet.

What have tests found in Mars' soil?

basicly nothimg. no bacteria not anything. but now scientists believe there may be something at its poles -ORIGINAL ANSWER They have not found anything recognisable as life, nor direct evidence of recognisable life having existed there previously. What they have found is a whole bunch of soluble nutrients (such as potassium, magnesium and chloride) that would mean the dirt on Mars could support Earth's vegetation. Along with the evidence that liquid water once flowed on the surface of Mars, this suggests abiogenesis COULD have occured on Mars. Whether it did or not, and why, is still not known -we literally are just scratching the surface of Mars' history. This discovery also means that colonisation of Mars is more feasable as native Mars soil could be used to grow Earth's vegetation.

What was the roman god Mars' powers?

Mars was honored in several manifestations. Initially, Mars was worshipped as the Roman god having power over spring, fertility, fields, crops, vegetation, cattle and other livestock. Finally and most famously, during Rome's great military era, Mars was worshipped as god of death and war; Mars Gradivus (leader in battle) and Mars Ultor (the avenger). At the Campus Martius just outside the city, soldiers and athleteswere trained. The beginning and end of the main growing season, which also corresponded to the main warfare season, were marked by Mars festivals. His sacred animals were the wolf and the woodpecker.


Why do temperatures on the surface of Mars vary between day and night more than they do on the Earth's surface?

Because Mars has much less of an atmosphere to hold in the gases/heat. It also does not have any vegetation, which helps hold heat near the ground. This lower atmosphere also means that water cannot be sustained in a liquid state on Mars. So without massive planetary change, we could never inhabit it.


Distinguish between vegetation and natural vegetation?
