Question

terrestrial The roadrunner, although a largely terrestrial bird, can take flight for short periods when necessary. tərˈɛstriəl

Accepted Answer

(1) Having to do with Earth or its inhabitants. (2) Living or growing on land instead of in water or air. Everything on or having to do with Earth can be called terrestrial. Mercury, Venus, and Mars are often called the terrestrial planets, since they are rocky balls somewhat like Earth rather than great globes of gas like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Something extraterrestrial comes from beyond the earth and its atmosphere; the word can be used to describe anything “out of this world,” from moon rocks to meteors. Turning to the second sense of terrestrial, animals are often divided into the terrestrial (land-living) and the aquatic (water-living). And sometimes terrestrial animals are contrasted with arboreal animals, those that live in trees
