5 oceans- 1. Pacific - largest2. Arctic- smallest 3. Indian4. Southern5. Atlantic

•Seas are found on ,margins of the ocean and partially enclosed by land.•South pole is the largest and sea levels would rise 200ft. If it melted.

WHATS THE DIFFRENCE BETWEEN A OCEAN AND A SEA?

Land 30%

• 7 continents- The Grand Canyon-1. Africa-Nile In Arizona and is formed with water

2. Asia-Mt. Everest 600ft deep and 277mi. long3. Europe-Elbe river4. Australia-Mt. Bongong5. North America- Mt. McKinley 6. South America-Amazon River7. Antarctica- Lots of snow

Mars

What makes mars surface red?-The iron oxide in the soil. Are there any continents on mars?-No.Any oceans?- No ma’amMt Olympus mons is the largest mountain on

mars and is 3 times bigger than mars

Mars continued

Mars’ polar ice caps are made of what?Ice :D what else! (dry ice)Is there a grand canyon of mars?Yes its name is Valles Marineris.It is 3000-4000 ki. Long compared to the earths

grand canyon of 800ki. Long

Curiosity

Curiosity has discovered??? 1. Water 2. Soil3. And Alkaline Magma Curiosities cool facts 4. Color “eye” with high quality pictures and videos.5. Curiosity has a awesome laser6. Super powerful magnified glass (to kill those

martian space ants with.)

How earth and mars are alike

• They both have mountains, craters and other topographic features.

• Both have ice caps at their poles.• Both have water and soil.• Both have iron oxide in soil.• Both have atmospheres.

How earth and mars are different

• Mars has no continents• Mars has no oceans• Earth has only 1 moon, mars has 2• Mars has had rovers explore it• No trees or life on mars

So in Conclusion

That’s the solar system in a nutshellNow if you want to know more watch the Big
