Explanation:
what is celestial body?
-Celestial bodies or heavenly bodies are objects in space such as the sun, moon, planets, and stars. They form a part of the vast universe we live in and are usually very far from us. The glorious night sky is dotted with such objects and when we observe them using a telescope, they reveal fascinating worlds of their own. Because they are so far away, we cannot see all of them using the naked eye and we rely upon telescopes to study them.
what are planets?
-A planet must do three things: it must orbit a star, it must be big enough to have enough gravity to force a spherical shape, and it must be big enough that its gravity cleared away any objects of a similar size near its orbit.
What is Solar system?
-The term Solar System refers to the "family" of the Sun. The Sun is a star around which eight planets, among other celestial objects, revolve in orbits. This whole system of bodies is called the Solar System.
Name the planets of Solar system?
- Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune
Why is our earth called blue planet?
-Planet Earth has been called the "Blue Planet" due to the abundant water on its surface. Here on Earth, we take liquid water for granted; after all, our bodies are mostly made of water. However, liquid water is a rare commodity in our solar system. ... And only on such planets could life as we know it flourish.
Why is there life on Earth?
- It is the right distance from the Sun, it is protected from harmful solar radiation by its magnetic field, it is kept warm by an insulating atmosphere, and it has the right chemical ingredients for life, including water and carbon.
What is Globe
-The Globe is a smaller scaled Earth. It shows us the shape and location of the continents, oceans, countries, and the location of the important cities. ... However, you can turn the globe around to see the other half.
What are parallels of latitudes?
-Latitude is an angle (defined below) which ranges from 0° at the Equator to 90° (North or South) at the poles. Lines of constant latitude, or parallels, run east–west as circles parallel to the equator. Latitude is used together with longitude to specify the precise location of features on the surface of the Earth.
I could do only this much sorry hope i was some help
