Question

Consider only the observed patterns of motion in the solar system.Scientifically, which of the following possible conclusions is justified from the patterns of motion alone?a)The planets were not born within the past million years,but instead they must have been born billions of years agob)The planets were not each born in a separate, randomevent.c)The planets were born from a giant cloud of gas that rotated inthe same direction that the Milky Way Galaxy rotatesd) The planets started out quite small and grew to their currentsizes as they gradually accreted more material

Answer 1

Scientifically the planets were not each born in a separate, random event is possible conclusions justified from the patterns of motion alone.

Option: B

Step-by-step explanation:

The gas cloud which gave birth to our solar system was the result of gas recycling inside our galaxy across many generations of stars. The gas composed of a mixture of 98 per cent hydrogen and helium and 2 per cent of all else. When it shrinks in size, a falling gas cloud inevitably appears to heat up, spin more rapidly and compress out. And our solar system started out as a revolving gas disk. The organized movements we see today all resulted from the organized movement of this rotating gas disk.

Planets were developed across solid seeds condensed from gas, and then evolved by accretion. Temperatures were so large in the inner solar system that only metal and rock could distill which describes why terrestrial environments are made of metal and rock. Cold temperatures in the outer solar system permitted condensation of more plentiful ices together with metal and rock.
