Some people, including many Christians, believe that humans have a privileged place in the universe. Typical of this belief is the idea that animals do not have "souls" and are therefore fundamentally different from humans. On the other hand, some people, including many Buddhists, believe that animals are as much a part of the universe as humans are and that we should respect them as we respect everything in existence. Between these two poles lie an endless variety of interpretations of animal rights. For example, some people believe animals should be treated kindly yet used, responsibly, as a food source. Key to answering your question is an understanding of who you believe is in a position to bestow "rights." Is it a government? A sacred tradition? Your personal beliefs? However you answer these questions, the fact that humans so often experience caring and sympathy for animals suggests that we should treat them with respect.

Why does earth have life forms?

Earth is a living planet. Activity is constantly taking place not only on the surface, but also on the inside beneath our feet. We do not know exactly how our planet works. Compared to the age of the universe, the amount of time we have studied the Earth is very short. We do have theories about how continents form and change, but the scope of testing such theories is far too broad to be realistic. We continue to study evidence, but are not able to prove any theories beyond a doubt. Living being are found here so called a living planet......


When a planet is undergoing retrograde motion the right ascension?

When a planet is undergoing retrograde motion, its right ascension will appear to decrease over time. This occurs because, from our perspective on Earth, the planet seems to move backward against the backdrop of stars. This apparent motion is a result of the relative positions and motions of Earth and the other planet in their respective orbits. Consequently, the right ascension changes as the planet moves in the opposite direction to its usual path.

Why does earth have oxygen but Mars and Venus do not?

Earth has oxygen-rich atmosphere primarily due to the process of photosynthesis performed by plants and other organisms. Mars and Venus, on the other hand, do not have significant amounts of oxygen in their atmosphere due to different geological and atmospheric compositions that do not support the production or retention of oxygen in the same way as Earth.

Why does earth have plants?

Plants are a form of life. Life exists for its own sake and if the conditions are right, life may emerge by chance. It is possible for plants to live on Earth because the planet is favorable to plant life, having water and oxygen, the right temperature, good amount of sunlight, a protective magnetic field around it, etc.
