Answer:

 The correct answer is 500.

Explanation:

Asteroids are large rocky remains that are orbiting our solar system. Most of them are between Mars and Jupiter.

The largest recorded asteroid is called Vesta, which has 530 km in diameter. <u>The smallest asteroids are approximately 10 meters wide.</u> If you would like to have an idea of how large an asteroid can be, imagine that the total mass of all asteroids together is even less than the mass of the moon.

<u>These rock forms usually have an irregular shape and have craters.</u> As they move forward, they also fall as they spin.

We can classify them according to their <u>composition</u> into <u>three types: </u>

  • Type C asteroids: Their appearance is dark and they are formed by clay and silicate rocks.
  • Type S asteroids: Its main component is silicate and nickel-iron.
  • M-type asteroids: Its composition is metallic.
