Why do some scientists say that the moon may have been important for the evolution of human life?

The moon is large and is close enough that it is able to reduce the amount of variance in Earth's tilt. Long-term evolutionary theory requires that organisms have a healthy environment to survive for prolonged periods of time, with normal seasons and gradual large-scale tweaks. By keeping our planet's tilt stable, the Moon allowed the Earth to keep those conditions.

If these are the missing choices: a. to determine skin temperature, place the back of your hand against the patient's skin.b. determine body temperature by touching the patient's hands and feet.c. skin temperature will tell you very little about this patient's condition or well-being.d. the patient's skin temperature and color will likely be warm and red.my answer is: a. to determine skin temperature, place the back of your hand against the patient's skin. using the back of the hand to check for temperature rather than the palm is more effective because the back of the hand has more nerves that can feel and transmit the temperature than the palm.
