Masja [62]
<h2>Answer: C) stars in these regions are hidden by interstellar dust grains.</h2>

Explanation:

Some areas of the Milky Way seem dark because those are areas of the galaxy that are hidden by huge columns of interstellar dust that we cannot see through the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum (which is the range in which our eyes see).

However, to solve this problem, astronomers use telescopes that work in the range of infrared and radio waves, to observe a little more through this intersetelar dust.

Based on what you know about comets, select all of the correct statements from the following list. A comet is a lump of rock and
IrinaK [193]

A comet is a lump of rock and ice. Spacecraft have flown by comets. A comet only has a tail when it is near the sun. Most comets come from the Kuiper belt. A comet has actually been witnessed hitting a planet. Most comets have short orbital periods.

A comet is a tiny, frozen entity in the Solar System that heats up and starts to emit gases as it approaches the Sun. This process is known as outgassing. This results in an apparent atmosphere or coma, and occasionally a tail as well. These occurrences are caused by how the solar wind and solar radiation interact with the comet's nucleus.

The size of comet nuclei varies between a few hundred meters and tens of kilometers, and they are made up of loose clumps of ice, dust, and tiny rocky particles. A comet's orbit is typically very eccentric and elliptical, and its orbital period can range from a few years to possibly millions of years.
