a. it is very cold at titan. cold gases are more easily held in place by gravity, so although titan is the size of mercury, it is able to cling to this gold gas.

c. titan does not spin on its axis, so the atmosphere is not thrown off.

d. titan has no appreciable atmosphere, so the question is meaningless.

Will someone earth science water cycle: will someone tell me how the water cycle works, but in a story? ? pretend you are a drop of water somewhere. (like; "once i was floating around in a cloud" or, "once i was lying in a puddle in the middle of a parking lot.) and tell your life story! and use the words "evaporation" "condensation" "accumulation" "transpiration" "precipitation" and "runoff" tell the story like your the drop of water telling your life story. include all the parts of the water cycle including those vocabulary words above. and !
