What planet has no true atmosphere?
Mercury, the smallest planet that is also closest to the sun. It is due to these reasons that it has no atmosphere, so the surface is a near vacuum. There are trace gases about, but not in large enough amounts to call a real atmosphere.
What moon has a thin oxygen atmosphere?
Saturn's moon Dione has a thin oxygen atmosphere. Dione, which has large craters, is a relatively small moon, measuring 698 miles in diameter.
Is mars atmosphere poisonous?
Mars's atmosphere is poisonous. The atmosphere is mainly carbon dioxide which is not poisonous in small amounts, but is harmful in large amounts, like on Mars. Also you would die anyway because there's no oxygen.
Will there be oxygen in space if you plant a tree there?
Interesting question. The Oxygen must come from somewhere. On Earth a plant gets oxygen from 2 sources. Water and/or the atmosphere. It does not just make it up, simply transforms it from one form to another. A plant takes in Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and releases the Oxygen (O2) into the atmosphere. If there were some form of atmosphere/light/water to sustain the plants life then they will automatically produce a more oxygen rich atmosphere. As for the moon: It doesn't really have enough gravitational pull to sustain an atmosphere like that. Maybe Mars where the Atmosphere is 95% Carbon Dioxide and quite possibly large frozen lakes of ice.
Which rocky planet has only thin atmosphere?
Mars, It has a thin atmosphere of carbon dioxide. Earth and Venus have relatively thick atmospheres due to their larger size, while Mercury's mass is not large enough to sustain any stable atmosphere.
What planet is the planet of oxygen?
The Earth is the only planet with a large quantity of free oxygen, which came about because of plant life, which uses carbon dioxide and energy from the Sun to manufacture carbon for plant tissues, giving out oxygen as a waste product. About 21% of the Earth's atmosphere is oxygen.
What is a large planet with a deep massive atmosphere called?
A "Gas Giant" planet.
How did oxygen first appear in the atmosphere?
It is believed that when primitive algae flourished on an early earth, they pumped out zillions of cubic kilometres of this gas. Before them, oxygen wasn't around in the atmosphere in very large quantities. After long, long periods of time, the percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere rose. It is to these early life forms that we owe the "air" and the atmosphere that supports us now.
What is aplanet?
a planet is a large bit of rock floating in are atmosphere
What is the large planet whose atmosphere is very thick?
Jupiter
Why is the worlds atmosphere so big?
The planet Earth has a sufficiently large mass, and correspondingly large gravitational field, to enable it to hold on to a large atmosphere.
What was the percentage of oxygen in prehistoric times?
It was about 60% higher than the 21% that is today. This is a reason for large animals that are today smaller due to lower amounts of oxygen in the atmosphere. Living things usually grow faster in higher percentages of oxygen.
Why is oxygen a common reactant?
There is a large supply of oxygen in Earth's natural atmosphere, and oxygen is a strongly electronegative element.
Is the destruction of rain forests a serious problem?
It will be gone forever once its totally destroyed, and all the animals that live there will die, too. The Rainforests are where a large portion of the oxygen is produced on the planet, and where carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere. The loss of these forests is upsetting the ecology of the planet. With no oxygen, animals will all die.
What planet is the only one that has large bodies of water and a protected atmosphere?
earth
What planet has no true atmosphere?
Mercury, the smallest planet that is also closest to the sun. It is due to these reasons that it has no atmosphere, so the surface is a near vacuum. There are trace gases about, but not in large enough amounts to call a real atmosphere.
Where can a large amount of nitrogen be found on the planet?
The greatest concentration of nitrogen on the Earth is found in its atmosphere. The atmosphere is approximately 78 percent nitrogen.
