Question

14
the diagram below shows a part of the solar system.
object x is most likely
a star.
a moon.
a planet.
a sun.

Explanation:

• A star is a large, luminous sphere of plasma. The Sun is the only star in our solar system, so X is not a star.
• A moon orbits a planet. The diagram shows X orbiting the Sun (as Earth does), not a planet.
• A planet orbits a star (the Sun in our solar system). X is shown in an orbit around the Sun, similar to Earth.
• The Sun is the central star of our solar system. There is only one Sun in our solar system.

Answer:

a planet.
