Answer:

The correct answer is option D. The less a star appears to move, the farther it is from earth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

Let's solve this!

The stars, like the Earth move. We see them still as they are far away, the distance is very large. The stars we see in motion are the ones that are very close.

Then, the further a star is, the quieter we will see it.

After the analysis, we conclude that the correct answer is option D. The less a star appears to move, the farther it is from earth.
