Process of Science: Scientists have not observed Io's interior nor measured its internal temperature. What evidence do we have of Io's strong tidal heating from Jupiter?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

RR Lyrae stars pulsate, but with shorter periods and lower luminosities than Cepheids.
 
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Answer to Question 1

Io has active volcanoes, as verified through pictures of the surface, pictures of plumes, and a lack of craters. Its proximity to Jupiter means that gravitational tidal heating is likely a strong source of internal friction and heat.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
