Question
Which statement below is true?Select one:The mass of each planet is less than that of the Sun, so they all orbit the Sun.highlight_offThe mass all the planets together is greater than the mass of the sun.highlight_offThe mass of each planet is different, so they each orbit their own moons.highlight_offThe mass of all planets is the same, so they all orbit the Sun
Solution
The correct statement is: "The mass of each planet is less than that of the Sun, so they all orbit the Sun." This is because the Sun's mass is so great that it exerts a strong gravitational pull on all the planets in the solar system, causing them to orbit around it.
