∙ 14y agowhat two characteristics of earth allow liquid water to exist
Water can exist as a solid, liquid, and gas on Earth due to its varying temperatures and atmospheric conditions.
Earth is the only planet in our solar system with a stable water cycle due to its moderate temperatures that allow water to exist in a liquid state. The presence of a suitable atmosphere and distance from the Sun also play a crucial role in regulating Earth's temperature and allowing liquid water to exist.
Water exists as a solid, liquid, and gas on Earth.
the presence of liquid water on Earth's surface, which enables life to exist. Other planets in our solar system are either too hot or too cold to support liquid water on their surfaces, making Earth unique in its ability to sustain a diverse range of organisms.
Earth is the planet that is approximately 150 million km (93 million miles) from the sun, which allows for water to exist in solid (ice), liquid, and gas (vapor) states due to its moderate temperature range.

the inhabitants could have special adaptations, such as fish have gills that allow them to breathe under water.
could water exist as a liquid if we don't have a atmosphere
Water could exist as a liquid on Earth without an atmosphere in specific conditions where the temperature and pressure allow for liquid water to form. However, without an atmosphere, these conditions would be less stable and water would be more likely to evaporate or freeze quickly due to the lack of atmospheric pressure and insulation.
Earth's moderate temperature range and its atmosphere with a stable pressure both contribute to the existence of liquid water on its surface. The temperature range allows for liquid water by maintaining conditions suitable for it to remain in its liquid state, while the atmosphere helps to stabilize those conditions by preventing water from evaporating into space.
Earth is just the right distance from the sun, receiving just enough energy to allow liquid water to exist on the planets surface. If earth were a little further away, then the water would be frozen as ice, while much closer and the water would boil away as water vapour. Liquid water is essential for allowing life to exist.
Water can exist in three states, liquid, vapor and as a solid. On the earth, it exists in all three states.
Liquid water.
liquid, solid, and gas :)
solid liquid gas
Water can exist as a solid, liquid, and gas on Earth due to its varying temperatures and atmospheric conditions.
earth is the only planet where the same substance can exist in gaseous , liquid , and solid form
