By the end of today…

SWBAT draw conclusions from data to compare the traits of the eight planets.

Mercury = 0 Venus = 0 Earth = 1 Mars = 2 Jupiter = 16 Saturn = 18 Uranus = 21 Neptune = 8

Conclusions I can make from this graph:

Uranus has the most number of moons

The Jovian planets have a significant more number of moons than the Terrestrial planets.

Mercury = 0.55 Venus = 0.80 Earth = 1.0 Mars = 0.10 Jupiter = 320 Saturn = 95 Uranus = 15 Neptune = 17

Conclusions I can make from this graph:

Jupiter has the biggest mass.The Jovian planets have a bigger

mass than the Terrestrial planets.

Mercury = 5.4 Venus = 5.2 Earth = 5.5 Mars = 3.9 Jupiter = 1.3 Saturn = 0.7 Uranus = 1.2 Neptune = 1.7

Conclusions I can make from this graph:

Earth is the most dense planet.The Terrestrial planets are more

dense than the Jovian planets.

Mercury = 0.24 Venus = 0.60 Earth = 1.0 Mars = 1.9 Jupiter = 12 Saturn = 30 Uranus = 84 Neptune = 165

Conclusions I can make from this graph:

Neptune has the longest period of revolution.

The Jovian planets have the longer period of revolutions than the Terrestrial planets.

Mercury = 60 Venus = 240 Earth = 1.0 Mars = 1.2 Jupiter = 0.35 Saturn = 0.40 Uranus = 0.70 Neptune = 0.75

Conclusions I can make from this graph:

Venus has the longest day. Jupiter has the shortest day.The Jovian planets have shorter

periods of rotation than the Terrestrial planets.

Mercury = 0.21 Venus = 0.01 Earth = 0.02 Mars = 0.09 Jupiter = 0.05 Saturn = 0.05 Uranus = 0.05 Neptune = 0.01

Conclusions I can make from this graph:

Mercury has most eccentric orbit.

1) Compared to Earth, does Jupiter have a shorter or longer period of revolution?

2) Compared to the Jovian planets, do the Terrestrial planets have shorter or longer periods of rotation?

Create 15 of your own test questions AND answers on what we have learned so far in this unit (big bang, universe, galaxies, stars, planets, etc.).

You may NOT use questions you have seen before. (This is the easiest way to loose points)
