2. THE SOLAR SYSTEM WHAT IS THE SOLAR SYSTEM? The Solar System is made up of the Sun, and the planets, moons and other celestial bodies, like comets, that move around the Sun. The Sun and other stars produce their own heat and light, Planets and moons only reflect this heat and light, MPHE PLANETS OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM. There are nine planets in the Solar System: Mean ‘ Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. The planets can be divided into two groups: Interior planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are closer to the Sun and smaller than the external planets Exterior planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus ‘and Neptune are larger planets and are further away from the Sun than the interior planets. Pluto is the furthest away of all the planets, but is also the smallest planet, Images of the Universe, the Earth and the Mian The movement of the planets The planets make two movements: Rotation. Each planet rotates (or spins) on its axis. © Orbit, The planets orbit (or move around) the Sun. MOONS Moons orbit planets. Some planets have more than one moon. Jupiter, for example, has seventeen moons, but the Earth only has one: the Moon. COMETS Comets are celestial bodies made of ice and dust. They orbit the Sun. Invisible for most of the time, comets only become visible when they approach the Sun. When the Comets are only visible when they approadh comets are close to the Sun, some of the ice and dust the Sun. The last comet to pass Earth wos evaporates and they release clouds of gas. 1996. Itwas called the Hyakutake comet 100 unr 3. THE EARTH AND THE MOON JHE MOVEMENTS OF THE EARTH Like all planets in the Solar System, the Earth has two movements: rotation and orbit. Rotation: days and nights The Earth rotates on its own axis. This movement creates the difference between day and night. The Earth takes 24 hours (one day) to complete one rotation on its axis. It rotates constantly without ever stopping Rotation causes day and night. The Sun illuminates one half of the Earth's surface at any particular time. On the half of the Earth facing the Sun, itis day. On the other half of the Earth facing away from the Sun, itis night. When it is night in Spain it is day in Australia. THE MOVEMENTS OF THE EARTH Corer Cen ord Prag a) 102 unr 7 2 Orbit: the seasons The Earth orbits the Sun. This movement causes the different seasons. The Earth takes 365 days and 6 hours (one year) to complete one orbit of the Sun. The amount of light and heat received from the Sun is not equal everywhere on Earth because of the Earth's tilt This causes different climates in different areas of the world, Itis also responsible for the changes in season during the year: spring, summer, autumn and winter. The seasons happen at different times in the two hemispheres. When it is summer in the Northern Hemisphere, itis winter in the Southern Hemisphere.

GLOBES AND MAPS GLOBES AND PLANISPHERES We use globes and planispheres (maps) to represent what the Earth looks like. @ Globes show the Earth as a sphere. We can see the true shape of the Earth and the positions of the oceans and continents. A globe also shows the inclination, or tilt, of the Earth e Planispheres represent the Earth as a flat surface. We can see the oceans and continents, but not the Earth's tilt. Mwacinary LINES OF LATITUDE AND LONGITUDE A globe is an exact representation of our planet. Imaginary lines are drawn on maps to describe where places are on the Earth. These lines appear in the some positions on all maps and globes, LINES OF LATITUDE @ The Earth's axis goes through the centre of the Earth from the North Pole to the South Pole. The Earth rotates on this axis. @ The lines of latitude are parallel circles that go horizontally around the Earth. They indicate distance north or south from the Equator. The Equator is the middle line that divides the taf Earth into two equal parts. These two parts are the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. LINES OF LONGITUDE @ The lines of longitude go vertically from pole to pole. Every point on Earth is measured in terms of how far east or west it is from the line of zero longitude. This line is called the Greenwich Meridian because it passes through Greenwich in England. 104 unir7 1. THE WEATHER WHAT Is THE ATMOSPHERE? The atmosphere is the layer of air that surrounds the Earth. There would be no life on Earth without the atmosphere. The weather is the state of the atmosphere ata particular place and time. The main features of weather are air temperature, wind and precipitation. The weather is the state of the atmosphere at a particular time and place. Air temperature Air temperature indicates how hot or cold the air is. When it is hot, we say the temperature is high, and when it is cold, we say the temperature is low. We wear different clothes depending on the changes in the temperature Temperature changes daily and with the seasons. It is higher in summer than in winter. Wind Wind is the movement of air. Itis classified according to its strength and speed. A breeze is alight wind, and a hurricane is an extremely strong wind Precipitation Precipitation is the water that falls from the clouds onto the Earth. It can fall in the form of rain, snow or hail TPHE WEATHER CAN CHANGE The weather changes and is not always acs the same. It can vary from day to day and can change during the day.

CLIMATE NHAT Is THE CLIMATE? The climate is the general weather pattern of a particular area over many years. An area's climate is affected by three different factors: * Latitude (the distance from the Equator). The zones near the poles have lower temperatures and less precipitation. The zones near the Equator are hotter and have more precipitation. * Altitude and relief (the height and form of the land). High, mountainous areas often have lower temperatures and more rain than low, flat areas, * Distance from the sea. Areas near the sea are cooler in summer and warmer in winter. There is also more humidity and precipitation near the sea, ‘The climate is the general weather pattern of an area over a long period of time. : 130. unr PIER aes 26 Here are some interesting facts about the climate. * In the Atacama desert in Chile, there has been no rain for 400 years. * In India, 75% of the total yearly rainfall can fall in the summer months, « In the tropics, the difference between the maximum and minimum temperatures each year is only 2°C. The heat from the sun is more intense in some places than others because the sun's rays hit the Earth at a more direct angle. Therefore, itis hotter in zone A than in zone B, and it is also hotter in zone B than in zone C. In the summer, the sea is cooler than the Earth, so the sea breeze decreases the femperature. In the winter, the sea is warmer than the Earth, so the sea breeze increases the temperature.

DIFFERENT CLIMATES ABE EARTH'S CLIMATE ZONES The Earth's curving surface means that different regions receive different amounts of heat. The angle of the sun's rays as they hit the Earth determines the different climate zones. The Earth has three different climate zones: hot, temperate and cold. The hot zone The hot zone is located between the two tropics. Here, the sun's rays are very direct, so the temperatures are high all year. The heat from the sun evaporates the water, forming clouds and frequent rainfall. In places where there is more rain, there are jungles. In places where there is litle rain, there are deserts. The temperate zones ‘The temperate zones are north and south of the hot zone. CLIMATE ZONES The sun's rays hit these zones at an angle. As a result, itis never very hot or very cold, and the amount of precipitation is more regular than in the hot and cold zones. During the year, the length of the days and nights are different. For example, in summer the days are longer and the nights are shorter. In temperate zones, the year is divided into four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter. The cold zones The cold zones are north and south of the temperate zones at the polar circles. The cold zone in the Northern Hemisphere is inside the Arctic Circle, and the cold zone in the Southern Hemisphere is inside the Antarctic Circle. Temperatures are very low in the cold zones because the sun's rays hit the Earth indirectly Temperatures are often below 0°, and there is no rain, only snow. Arctic Circle Antarctic Circle 132 wwiro he hydrosphere TPs rir 22. ) Test your partner. a) Name two places we find fresh water. b) Which are the different states of water inthe pictures? Allthe water on the Earth is called the hydrosphere. About 96% of the hydrosphere is salt water. Only 2.5% of the Earth’s water is fresh water. There’s less fresh water, but it’s found almost everywhere! Fresh water is the water we use for drinking and washing. It’s found in the atmosphere. We can see it in clouds. We also find fresh water on the surface in the ice caps and in rivers and lakes. Fresh water is also found under the ground in groundwater. ice caps surface freshwater water vapour The ice caps are the Earth's frozen areas. The amount of water on Earth never changes. But it does change state. * When we heat ice, which is solid water, it turns into liquid. This is called melting. ‘ * When we heat liquid water it turns into its gaseous state, which is called water vapour or steam. This is called evaporation. When seawater evaporates into the atmosphere it loses its salt and becomes fresh water vapour. It can also change back by cooling. * When water vapour cools, it turns back into a liquid. This is called condensation. * When liquid water freezes it turns into ice, which is solid water. These different states occur in the constant round of changes known as the water cycle.

Rivers can be short or long, deep or shallow. Spanish rivers have less water in summer because there is less rainfall. The longer rivers have watersheds in the Atlantic Ocean A catchment is the area of land that is drained by a river. Catchments can be large or small. The source of a river is usually found in elevated ground such as a mountainside. The first part of a river usually flows through a narrow channel with steep valley sides. The middle course is wider and it flows through valleys which are less steep. Rivers flow down hill The lower course of the river flows through floodplains, going downhill still, but less steeply. It is here that the river can be joined by other rivers. These are called tributaries, The river continues, through flat lands called the delta until it reaches the sea. Finally, the last part of the river is the mouth of the river, where it reaches its watershed. The sides of a river are called its, banks. A river flows downhill fast at first, then more slowly as it approaches its end. Floodplains are large areas of flat land. Sometimes the delta is split into different channels as the river reaches the sea, The world around us The Earth’s surface ®» Landforms In some places the land is flat. In other places there are hills, mountains, and valleys. On the Earth’s surface there are different landforms.
