Question

________ is the coming together and cohesion of matter under the influence of gravitation to form larger bodies.

Answer 1

Answer;

Accretion

Explanation;

• Accretion is the process that occurs in the solar system which refers to the coming together and cohesion of matter under the influence of gravitation to form large bodies.
• Accretion involves the gradual clumping together of dust, rocks and meteorites into larger and larger bodies, eventually creating rocky planets, provided no larger gravitational bodies stop the process.
• In other words, small bits of matter are attracted toward an object due to gravity and stick to the object and will get bigger and bigger. Eventually, as in the case of a solar system forming, the objects will get big enough to become planets and stars.
