these are the multiple choice options:
- a. Jovian planets can migrate inward from the orbits in which they are born.
- b. In some star systems, it is possible for jovian planets to form in the inner solar system and terrestrial planets to form in the outer solar system.
- c. Some of the "exceptions to the rules" in our own solar system are likely to have been the result of giant impacts.
- d. In addition to the categories of terrestrial and jovian, there must be an "in-between" category of planet that has the mass of a jovian planet but the composition of a terrestrial planet.

Which process explains why the terrestrial planets do not have hydrogen and helium in their atmospheres?
The terrestrial planets are less massive and therefore have less gravity. As a result, much of the lighter gases could escape, in the process of planet formation.
Why do we have a solar system?
In simple terms - gravity caused the Sun to form. This pulled gas and 'debris' from the 'big bang' into orbit around it - and the result was the formation of the planets.
What three ingredients result in the formation of cloud?
Moisture, dust, and temperature changes!
What two factors cause planets to move in elliptical orbits?
The elliptical orbit of planets is a result of the gravitation of the sun and the tangential velocity of the planet.

According to our theory of solar system formation why do you find some exceptions to the general rules and patterns of the planets?
Most of these are a result of giant impacts

Wind shear can result in the formation of a?
Wind shear can result in the formation of a tornado.
What is coal formation largely a result of?
Coal formation is largely the result of fossilization of organic matter.
Why the fact that the earth and the moon have different densities favors the collision theory of lunar formation?
It seems odd to postulate that the planets/moons in our galaxy were the result of collisions. If that were true, why have we not been witnessing recurring collisions-- with the creation of other new planets/moons?

Which process result in the formation of two genetically different cells?
Mutations result in formation of genetically different cells.
Does the movement of air result in cloud formation or inhibit cloud formation?
Cloud formation in the highs and inhibit cloud formation in the lows.
Does the sun give planets gravity?
No. Planets have gravity as a result of their own mass.
What does meiosis result in the formation of?
Meiosis results in the formation of the gametes. These sex cells are haploid.
