C. determine the chemical composition of rocks and soil on Mars

Step-by-step explanation:

Opportunity-Robotic vehicle was sent on Mars in 2003 and it became active on its surface from 2004 to mid 2008. Opportunity is also known as Mars Exploration Rover B (MER-B).

The main goals of this mission were:
