Answer:

Answer si 4) Mercury

Step-by-step explanation:

Craters are formed of the impact of asteroids leaving the Scars from the explosion. Different from other planets like Earth, Venus or Mars, Mercury doesn't have an atmosphere that could disintegrate an asteroid before colliding which is the case of Planet Earth. Also, Mercury 'have any erosional forces like wind or water that could "erase" the damage caused by asteroids.
