Q: A body of frozen gases, rock and dust travelling in an elongated orbit around the Sun is called:
- A. star
- B. Comet
- C. Cape
- D. satellite
Correct Answer:
Option B - Comets are frozen leftovers from the formation of the solar system composed of dust, rock and ices. They range from a few miles to tens of miles wide, but as they orbit closer to the sun, they heat up and spew gases and dust into a glowing head that can be larger than a planet. This material forms a tail that stretches millions of miles.
