The column with the planet names was accidentally deleted. The student must infer from the remaining data as much as possible about the planets. Which statements can be inferred from the data? Select ALL that apply. A) Planets that are farther from the sun tend to support life. B) Planets that are closer to the sun tend to be smaller in size. C) Planets that orbit closer to the sun tend to have rockier surfaces. D) Planets that are about the same size as Earth tend to support life. E) Planets that are farther from the sun tend to have a more gaseous surface composition.

Correct Answers:

B. Planets that are closer to the sun tend to be smaller in size

C. Planets that orbit closer to the sun tend to have rockier surfaces

E. Planets that are farther from the sun tend to have a more gaseous surface composition

Explanation:

B is right because the inner planets are smaller than the outer planets, and they are closer to the sun too

C is right because the inner planets are called "Rocky planets" and the outer planets are called "Gas Giants"

E is right because, well I already said the answer before, outer planets are called "Gas Giants"

Hope this helps

The correct options are

  • Planet that are closer to the sun tend to be smaller in size
  • Planet that orbit closer to the sun tend to have rockier surface
  • Planet that are farther from the sun tend to have a more gaseous surface composition
