Hi there!

The correct answer is B. comet. A comet is a giant clump of ice and dust from space that orbits the Sun and when it passes near to the Sun in its orbit of it the comet melts a little and releases gasses that trail behind the comet, which creates the tail we see in the sky when a comet passes Earth.
