Student A claims there are 8 planets while Student B claims there are 12 planets in the solar system. Evidence supports there being 8 planets. On Mars, you would weigh the least due to its lower gravity. Earth has a mass of 1% compared to other inner planets and is the biggest. Dr. Grumbles is incorrect that winter is caused by Earth being farther from the sun; it is actually due to the tilt of Earth's axis. The path of the sun does not change during seasons, as the Earth orbits the sun while tilted on its axis. Seasons on Uranus would be different than Earth due to Uranus having a extreme tilt nearly lying on its side compared to Earth's more upright tilt.

There is a disagreement with two students on how many planets are in the solar system. Student A claims there are 8 planets and Student B claims there are 12 planets. What is some evidence to support each claim? 1. I think that there are 8 but I'm not completely sure. 2. I was correct. But it depends 3. Both are correct 2. On which planet would you weigh the least? What is your evidence to prove this? 1. I think you would weigh least on mars, but I am not positive. 2. I was correct 3. Mars and Mercury 3. How does the mass of our planet compare to the other inner planets? 1. 1% 2. I was correct 3. We are the biggest of the inner planets 4. Dr. Grumbles claims that it is colder during the winter because Earth is farther from the sun. Provide evidence to prove him right or wrong? 1. Because the earth turns while it moves around the earth, so we must have winter. 2. I was correct 3. Dr. Grumbles is not correct 5. How does the path of the sun in the sky change during seasons? 1. It doesn’t because the earth is the one who goes around the sun the sun does not go around the earth. 2. I was correct 3. I was not correct 6. How would seasons on Uranus be different from Earth? 1. I have no idea. 2. It's the planet's tilt that gives Uranus its seasons, just as Earth's seasons are caused by our world's tilt on its axis. But the tilts of our planets are different. While Earth orbits nearly upright, Uranus is lying down nearly sideways with respect to its orbit around the sun I think I was correct
