Answer:
D) Some of the light passes through, and some of the light is absorbed or scattered by the object.
Explanation:
When light strikes translucent materials, only some of the light passes through them. The light does not pass directly through the materials. ... When light strikes an opaque object none of it passes through. Most of the light is either reflected by the object or absorbed and converted to heat.

The actual answer is 165 miles, but using significant figure rules the answer is 200. This is because the sig fig rules are as follows ...
<span>1. Non-zero digits are always significant.
2. Any zeros between two significant digits are significant.
<span>3. A final zero or trailing zeros in the decimal portion ONLY are significant.
</span></span>
So the zeroes in a number like 20 or 23,000 are NOT significant. When you add numbers you must find the addend with the lowest amount of significant figures and round the answer to that. In this case most of the addends only have one sig fig, so you round 165 to 200 to make it only have one sig fig.
