NameDateClassLanguage Arts SupportLESSON 3Writing a Compare-and-Contrast EssayPreparation and Taking NotesA compare-and-contrast essay is a form of expository writing that presents the similarities anddifferences between two places, things, ideas, or phenomena. This kind of essay includes: a general statement about two or more things that are alike in certain ways anddifferent in other ways; specific details that develop each point of similarity or difference; a discussion of why the similarities and differences are important or significant; a clear organizational structure that helps the reader follow the essay and stayinterested in it.Before you draft your essay, gather facts, descriptions, and examples that you can use tohighlight similarities and differences. Organize your information and details in a graphicorganizer, such as a Venn diagram. In addition to helping you take notes, a graphicorganizer can help you draw conclusions about similarities and differences.Directions: Use the Venn diagram to respond to each statement.Copyright Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.Earth averagetemperature 15 C period of rotation:24 hoursBoth diameter:approximately12,000 km internal structureincludes core,mantle, and crustVenus averagetemperature 460 C period of rotation:244 days1.

Then present all the details about the nextsubject. Choose this method when you want to cover many types of details. Also use thismethod when you want to compare and contrast two or more topics. For example, yourfirst paragraph should mention main points about the first topic, your second paragraphshould mention main points about a different topic, and so on.Paragraph 1Inner planets: small, rocky planetsParagraph 2Outer planets: large, gaseous planetsPoint-by-Point MethodIn your first paragraph, discuss one feature about both subjects. Then in the next paragraph,present the information about another feature of both subjects.Composition of each inner and outer planetParagraph 2Number of moons in each inner and outer planetParagraph 3Average density of each inner and outer planetAfter choosing one of these organizational methods, you can write your compare-andcontrast essay. Remember that your essay needs an introduction that states a main ideaabout your subject. For example: The planets in the solar system can be divided into twocategories based on their composition, number of moons, and average density.Applying the SkillDirections: Read Lessons 2 and 3 in your textbook. On a separate sheet of paper, organize details about twoplanets other than Earth and Venus using the block method or point-by-point method. Then write a brief compareand-contrast essay on the topic.52The Solar SystemCopyright Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.Paragraph 1

NameDateClassEnrichmentLESSON 3The Outer PlanetsThe Jovian PlanetsAccording to the nebular hypothesis,the solar system formed from a rotatingcloud of gas and dust—a solar nebula—thatsurrounded the newly formed Sun. Solidbits of matter began to collide and clumptogether. The rotating nebular disk flattened,and the clumps began to form planets.Copyright Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.Planet FormationIn the inner regions of the forming solarsystem near the Sun, the temperatures wereso high that only the metals and silicatematerials could clump together. It was toohot for gases such as carbon dioxide andmethane to accumulate and too hot for iceto form. Thus the inner planets formedfrom materials that had high meltingpoints.Much more material in the clumpingsolar nebula would also become planets.Out in the cold, distant reaches of the solarnebula, ices of water and other substancescould form. These materials began toaccrete, or clump together, to form theouter planets. Eventually, these planetsbecame so massive that their gravity couldhold light gases, such as helium andhydrogen.Jovian CharacteristicsThe massive outer planets are nowcalled the Jovian (Jupiterlike) planets. AJovian planet has a core of solid iron androck, but the rest of the entire planet ismade of ices and gases. If you could travelto these planets, there would be no solidground to stand on.It has been hypothesized that Jupiter ismade mostly of the same materials as theSun, and that if it had been 100 timeslarger and more massive, it would havebecome another sun. Jupiter is the largestof all the planets.Applying Critical-Thinking SkillsDirections: Respond to each statement.1. Describe how the outer planets differ in composition from the inner planets.2. Interpret the following statement: Humans will never set foot on any of the outerplanets. Justify your answer.3. Infer how Jupiter could have become another sun if it had been larger.The Solar System59

The moons of theouter planets range in diameter from 2 km to 5,268 km. The largest moon in the solarsystem is Jupiter’s Ganymede, which is larger than the planet Mercury.Many moons of the outer planets are small and have irregular shapes and unusual orbits.Some scientists believe that these are captured asteroids, meaning the gravity of the planetpulled the object into its orbit. Captured asteroids are natural satellites, but they did notform by accretion as regular spherical moons probably did.Moons of the Outer PlanetsPlanetNumber ofMoonsJupiterat least 63Io, Europa, Ganymede,CallistoGanymede is the solar system’s largestmoon, with a diameter of 5,268 km.These four moons are planet-sized.Saturnat least 60Titan, Rhea, Iapetus,DioneTitan is planet-sized at 5,150 km indiameter.Uranusat least 27Titania, Oberon, Umbriel,ArielTitania is 1,578 km in diameter, whiletiny Cordelia is 26 km in diameter.Neptuneat least 13Triton, Proteus, Nereid,NaiadNeptune’s moon Triton is 2,700 kmin diameter.Largest MoonsMoon Sizesof size from largest to smallest.
