Question 1

A very slow motion of Earth's axis that requires 26,000 years to complete is called ________.
◦ rotation
◦ precession
◦ inclination
◦ eccentricity

Question 2

If the earth were the center of the universe and the Moon, planets, and Sun all moved around the earth, logic would say that all of these celestial objects should move in the same direction across the sky, and relative to the celestial background. The Sun and Moon both follow this pattern, but the other planets have periods of retrograde motion. How did the Ptolemaic model explain retrograde motion and how is it more easily explained by the heliocentric model.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
