____________________________1) The Sun needs to survive long enough for the surrounding planet to
survive and develop life.

____________________________2) The “Goldilocks zone” is the region in the solar system where the
temperature received by the planets form the sun is too hot, disabling life to develop.
____________________________3) The Earth has the right temperature to keep water in liquid form.
This characteristic of Earth made it possible to nurture life.

___________________________ 4) Unlike other planets, the Earth is in the “Goldilocks zone” in the
solar system that made it possible to maintain conditions necessary to develop and support life.
___________________________ 5) Presence of excessive active volcanoes doesn’t necessarily affect the
possibility of life to exist.

___________________________ 6) Among the planets in the solar system, Earth’s distance from the
sun is just enough for it to maintain the temperature neither too hot nor too cold.

the reason why life on earth was able to exist.

___________________________ 8) Earth belongs to A of planets in the solar system called “Jovian


planets”. These planets are known as gas giants.

and simulated the conditions of the early Earth. They found out that the life on Earth was first to exist in
the oceans.

__________________________ 10) Mercury and Venus were observed to absorb less amount of energy
from the sun making these planets too cold for life to exist and develop.
