Question
jasmine is late to science class and misses the very beginning of notes for the day. these are jasmines notes:
-all orbit objects that orbit the sun
-all large enough to have enough gravitational pull to clear the path of their orbit
-all known in the kuiper belt (eris, haumea, makemake, and pluto)
-in the asteroid belt (cere)
jasmine later copies the title of the notes from a friend. what title did jasmine most likely copy?
comets
the kuiper belt
asteroids
dwarf planets
Dwarf planets orbit the Sun, have enough gravitational pull to clear their orbit (though not as dominant as full - fledged planets), and examples like Eris, Haumea, Makemake, and Pluto are in the Kuiper Belt. Comets are icy bodies with tails. The Kuiper Belt is a region, not an object type. Asteroids are mainly in the asteroid belt (not the Kuiper Belt for the main examples here). So the notes match the characteristics of dwarf planets.
