Answer:

From largest to smallest they are: Universe, milky way, clusters, stars, planets.


Explanation:

Let's describe them from smallest to largest. In fact the size order is not exact as there are exceptions.

A planet is a nearly spherical body which is in orbit around the Sun. Planets are larger than moons.

A star is what planets orbit around. It is the source of light and heat. Our Sun is a star which is many times bigger than all of the planets.


A galaxy, such as our Milky Way Galaxy, is a collection of solar systems orbiting around a central core. Most galaxies have a supermassive black hole at their centers.

Galaxies also form clusters which are large scale structures.

The universe is everything. It contains billions of galaxies

Hello,

The answer is "universe, Milky Way, clusters, stars, planets".

Reason:

The universe would be the biggest because it has all the galaxy's, starts, clusters, and planets into one. Then it would be Milky Way because this is a galaxy that contains: stars, planets, and clusters. Then it would be clusters because that contains stars, or planets in one group. Then be stars because stars are bigger than planets. Then it would be planets. Therefore the order should go like this: Milky Way, universe, planets, clusters, and stars.

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!
