Most astronomers feel that it would be impossible for life to exist on Venus. Today, Venus is a very hostile place. It is a very dry planet with no evidence of water, its surface temperature is hot enough to melt lead, and its atmosphere is so thick that the air pressure on its surface is over 90 times that on Earth. Even the spacecraft which have landed on Venus only survived for about an hour before being crushed and melted. There are however, a few scientists who think that it is possible for life to exist in the clouds of Venus.

There is circumstantial evidence, however, that bacteria may be living in the Venusian cloud tops. There is a link to an announcement by two NASA researchers to that effect below.
We haven't seen any evidence of life there, and the extreme temperatures could make life quite difficult. So, Venus probably doesn't have any life on it.

Yes. All mass generates gravity.

Mercury isn't very large, however, and so it doesn't generate a lot of gravitational force. Mercury's gravity is about 38% that of Earth, which is still about twice the gravity of the Moon.

That seems very unlikely as, its surface tempertaure is so hot that any Earth type plant material would burn. It has a thick atmosphere containing poisonous and corrosive gases. The atmosphere is so thick it would prevent most of the sunlight from ever reaching the suface.

Why would you not find soils on mars and venus?

Soil forms largely as a result of biological processes. There is no life on Venus or Mars, so soil cannot form.


Why there is no soil on mars or Venus?

There is no soil on Mars or Venus. How come? Those planets have plenty of rocks. Mars has windstorms that erode rocks into dust. Venus has an acid atmosphere that cooks rocks into new chemicals.But there's still something missing. Without life, there is no soil. Living things haven't just made a home in the soil on our planet. Life actually made the soil as we know it.Information from: http://school.discoveryeducation.com/schooladventures/soil/recipe_soil.html


Is the Venus's-flytrap finicky about where it grows in the wild?

Yes. Venus Flytraps only grow in poor, nutrient-depleted soil - usually sandy/wet/peaty soil. Since they cannot get their nutrients from the soil, they rely on living things (insects) to provide this.


Is Mars the only planet with soil?

No, the other terrestrial planets have soil, Earth, Mercury and Venus. Earths soil is different in that it contains organic matter.


What color is soil on Venus?

It is a yellowish reddish color follow me on twitter @omg_itslexi


Is a Venus fly trap a wildflower?

yes, but its range is limited to swampy soil.


Why are Mercury Venus earth and mars called the terrestrial plants?

Rocks and soil


Do all Venus Flytraps eat?

Yes, all Venus Flytraps eat. That's their mandatory source of nutrients, and as they only live in bad soil, they can't be like normal plants and get nutrients from their soil and photosynthesis solely.


Why is a Venus Flytrap able to live in poor marshy soil?

It has adapted to live in such conditions.


What time of year does a Venus flytrap grow?

Any type of soil except enriched soil. Be sure not to plant it in too deep, or it won't grow as well. Also, the plant will grow better if you change the soil every 2 or 3 years.


Why does the Venus Flytrap feed on insects?

The Venus Flytrap eats insects because of its native habitat, a bog (a type of wet, moist soil). The boggy soil is poor in nutrients so the plant gets its nutrients from insects. The plant is reliant on insects in order for it to live a healthy life.
