sineoko [7]

Answer:

From smallest ratio to the largest ratio:

Coasting Universe - Critical Universe - Recollapsing Universe(From left to right)

Explanation:

The coasting universe is one that expands at a constant rate given by the Hubble constant throughout all of cosmic time. It has a ratio of actual density to critical density that is less than 1

The critical universe is one that is at balance with no expansion .I.e. the actual density and the critical density are equal, which makes the ratio of actual density to critical density to be equal to 1

Recollapsing Universe: The expansion of the universe reverses in the future and the universe eventually recollapses. The recollapsing universe has the ratio of the actual density to the critical density to be greater than 1
