Answer:

asteroid belt

Step-by-step explanation:

region between Mars and Jupiter became the asteroid belt. Occasionally people wonder whether the belt was made up of the remains of a destroyed planet, or a world that didn't quite get started. However, according to NASA, the total mass of the belt is less than the moon, far too small to weigh in as a planet.
