  2. Celiac plexus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celiac_plexus

    The celiac plexus is often popularly referred to as the solar plexus. In the context of sparring or injury, a strike to the region of the stomach around the celiac plexus is commonly called a blow "to the solar plexus". In this case it is not the celiac plexus itself being referred to, but rather the region around it.

    Currently, cold surface bodies of liquid are found on two worlds in the Solar System, Earth and Saturn's moon Titan. [1] Earth is the only planet with liquid water on its surface. The other "oceans" are found under thick covers of surface ice. If both liquid and frozen water are counted, Earth ranks fifth in volume of its oceans. [2]

  5. Hypothetical types of biochemistry - Wikipedia

    Methane (CH 4) is relatively abundant in the solar system and the universe, and is known to exist in liquid form on Titan, the largest moon of Saturn. Though highly unlikely, it is considered to be possible for Titan to harbor life. If so, it will most likely be methane-based life. [citation needed] Non-green photosynthesizers Other speculations

  6. Planetary surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planetary_surface

    Liquid water as surface, beside on Earth, has only been found, as seasonal flows on warm Martian slopes, as well as past occurrences, and suspected at the habitable zones of other planetary systems. Surface liquid of any kind, has been found notably on Titan, having large methane lakes, some of which are the largest known lakes in the Solar System.

  7. Water on terrestrial planets of the Solar System - Wikipedia

    The best constraints for accreted H 2 O are determined from non-atmospheric H 2 O, as the D/H ratio of the atmospheric component may be subject to rapid alteration by the preferential loss of H [22] unless it is in isotopic equilibrium with surface H 2 O. Earth's VSMOW D/H ratio of 1.6×10 −4 [7] and modeling of impacts suggest that the ...

  8. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    When comparing a polar and nonpolar molecule with similar molar masses, the polar molecule in general has a higher boiling point, because the dipole–dipole interaction between polar molecules results in stronger intermolecular attractions. One common form of polar interaction is the hydrogen bond, which is also

    The internal structure of the inner planets. The internal structure of the outer planets. A planetary core consists of the innermost layers of a planet. [1] Cores may be entirely liquid, or a mixture of solid and liquid layers as is the case in the Earth. [2]
