Answer:

Comets

Explanation:

Comets are planetary celestial bodies consisting of ice and dust, sometimes rocky particles formed in the region of the solar system. Long-period comets propagate towards the Sun by gravitational perturbations caused by passing stars. Some comets usually hyberbolic comets, move through the inner Solar System prior to entering the interstellar region. Short period comet lies beyond the orbit of the Neptune.

The Jovian planets include Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

Therefore, leftovers of comets (planetesimal bodies) formed in the region of the solar system that are now occupied by the Jovian planets is due to the dusty particles associated with the comets.
