Question

. A scientist discovers a new object in the Kuiper Belt and claims it is a dwarf planet. What would have to be true about the object for the scientist to be correct?

Answer 1

The object would have to be spherical, orbit the Sun, and be traveling in a path with other objects.

Step-by-step explanation:

Just outside of Neptune's orbit is a ring of icy bodies. We call it the Kuiper Belt. This is where you'll find the dwarf planet, Pluto. It's the most famous of the objects floating in the Kuiper Belt, which are also called Kuiper Belt Objects, or KBOs.
