Which of the following best describes the make up of Saturn's rings?(1 point)
dust, rock, and ice particles that orbit due to Saturn's gravity
debris and rocks from other planets that orbit around Saturn
material from comets that have passed through Saturn's atmosphere
solid bands of sand and dust that formed from the start of the universe
Bot is correct, the answers for the quick check are:
A student creates a Venn diagram depicting two objects in the solar system. On one side of the Venn diagram, the student writes “have surface features such as mountains, valleys, and volcanoes,” and on the other side of the Venn diagram, the student writes “unable to land on because there is no solid surface.”
Which two objects is the student comparing? Inner and Outer planets
Which of the following best describes the make up of Saturn's rings? dust, rock, and ice particles that orbit due to Saturn's gravity
A student is making a model that compares comets and planets.
Which comparison could be part of the model? Comets and planets revolve around the sun.
A student is creating a model to compare and contrast different objects in the solar system.
In the model, most of which objects in the solar system will be found in a belt between Mars and Jupiter? asteroids
Yes, you are correct. Here are the correct answers:
1. Inner and Outer planets
2. dust, rock, and ice particles that orbit due to Saturn's gravity
3. Comets and planets revolve around the sun
4. asteroids are mostly found in the belt between Mars and Jupiter.
dust, rock, and ice particles that orbit due to Saturn's gravity
To determine the answer, we can analyze each option and eliminate the incorrect ones.
Option 1: Dust, rock, and ice particles that orbit due to Saturn's gravity.
This option is correct. Saturn's rings are composed of small particles, including dust, rock, and ice, held in orbit by Saturn's gravity.
Option 2: Debris and rocks from other planets that orbit around Saturn.
This option is incorrect. Saturn's rings are not composed of debris and rocks from other planets; they consist mainly of smaller particles.
Option 3: Material from comets that have passed through Saturn's atmosphere.
This option is partially correct. Some of the material in Saturn's rings comes from comets that have passed through its atmosphere. However, it is not the sole source of the ring material.
Option 4: Solid bands of sand and dust that formed from the start of the universe.
This option is incorrect. While the universe's formation did contribute to the formation of celestial bodies, Saturn's rings are not solid bands of sand and dust formed at the beginning of the universe.
Considering the analysis, the correct answer is:
- Dust, rock, and ice particles that orbit due to Saturn's gravity.
