The gray wolf is the second most specialised member of the genus Canis, after the Ethiopian wolf, as demonstrated by its morphological adaptations to hunting large prey, its more gregarious nature, and its highly advanced expressive behavior.ike the red wolf, it is distinguished from other Canis species by its larger size and less pointed features, particularly on the ears and muzzle. Its winter fur is long and bushy, and predominantly a mottled gray in color, although nearly pure white, red, or brown to black also occur.

Best Answer: With an average orbital speed of 9.69 km/s, it takes Saturn 10,759 Earth days (or about 29Â½ years), to finish one revolution around the Sun therefore making it one year. That answers how long a Saturn year is, 10,759 Earth days. Now to answer the question, How many days are in a year on Saturn, Saturn spins very fast on its axis. A Saturn day is roughly 10.5 hours, compared to 24 hours for an Earth day. Divide 24 by 10.5: 1 Earth day equals 2.286 Saturn days. Multiply 10,759 Earth days by 2.286. Therefore, on Saturn there are about 24,595 Saturn days and nights in one Saturn year.
Discussion Questions These questions can be used for group discussion or for written answers in the studentsâ learning logs. 1. How many days does it take for the Earth to make one revolution of the Sun? Answer: The Earth takes 365 Â¼ days to revolve around the Sun. This is known as one Earth year. Each planet takes a different amount of time to rotate around the Sun. 2. How many times will the Earth rotate as it goes around the sun once? Answer: The Earth rotates 365 Â¼ times as it revolves around the Sun. This is also the number of days in one Earth year. 3. If it takes 365 Â¼ days for the Earth to go around the Sun, but each year only has 365 days, what happens to the Â¼ day? Answer: Leap Year occurs every 4 years. This is because each 4 times around the Sun, there is a total of one extra day. (Â¼ + Â¼ + Â¼ + Â¼ = 1) This day is added on February 29th every fourth year, making that year 366 days long. 4. How many times does the Moon orbit the Earth in one Earth year? Answer: About 12, or 12.3 times. This is why we have about twelve full moons each year. 5. Does the Moon give off its own light? How do you know? Answer: No, in this model, the Moon is represented by a Styrofoam ball and does not give off light. 6.
