and i picked c

im soooo sorry i put the wrong thing im so sorry

a) stars
b) meteors
c) asteroids
d) UFOs
e) comets

but i picked b

I disagree.

One of those choices is imaginary -- so it doesn't move around the sun.

ms sue i give you the wrong answer i meant a sprry again

The only members of our solar system that do not periodically move around the sun are the objects located in the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud. These regions are beyond the orbit of Neptune and are populated by icy bodies, dwarf planets, and comets.

To understand why these objects do not periodically move around the sun, we need to consider their orbits. Most of the objects in the Kuiper Belt have relatively stable orbits, meaning that they remain in the same general region and do not cross into the inner solar system. They can be compared to the main asteroid belt located between Mars and Jupiter, but with more distant and elongated orbits.

On the other hand, the objects in the Oort Cloud have highly elliptical orbits that extend much farther from the sun. These objects are believed to have originated in the inner solar system but were gravitationally scattered to the outer reaches over time. Their eccentric orbits cause them to spend the majority of their time far from the sun, only occasionally coming close during their long, elliptical journeys.

Therefore, the objects in the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud do not periodically move around the sun like the eight planets in our solar system because their orbits are distant, elongated, and take them far away from the sun for extended periods.
