Suppose we found a Terrestrial planet in the inner solar system with twice Earth's mass. Which of the following statements would
you expect to be true about it? a. The planet will be more active than Earth because it is larger, but it will not have plate tectonics or composite volcanoes because those are unique to Earth
b. The new planet will be cooler than Earth because it is much older, and it will therefore be less geologically active with a thicker lithosphere.
c. It is impossible to tell what the new planet would be like because we know nothing about its age, orbit, or composition
d. The new planet would be hotter and more active than Earth with a bigger atmosphere, more water, and possible plate tectonics and composite volcanoes.
e. The new planet's location in the Solar System will determine how hot it is. If it is closer to the Sun, it will be hotter and more active than Earth.
f. The new planet would be cooler than Earth and less active because the higher gravity will make it challenging for plate tectonics.
