This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

Each of the following statements applies either to the formation of terrestrial planets or of jovian planets (but not both), based on our current theory of solar system formation. Drag the statements into the appropriate bin:

-accreted from planetesimals of rock and metal .

-surfaces dramatically altered during the heavy bombardment

-large moons formed in surrounding disks of material

-ejected icy planetesimals that are now Oort cloud comets

-formed in a region of the solar system with lower orbital speeds

-accreted from icy planetesimals

-formed in regions cold enough for water to freeze

The correct answers are:

Terrestrial planets: -accreted from planetesimals of rock and metal , -surfaces dramatically altered during the heavy bombardment

Jovian Planets: -large moons formed in surrounding disks of material , -ejected icy planetesimals that are now Oort cloud comets , -formed in a region of the solar system with lower orbital speeds , -accreted from

icy planetesimals , -formed in regions cold enough for water to freeze.

Explanation:

The terrestrial planets, are those planets that have similar characteristics to the planet Earth.

They have a core of extremely hot and liquid material and a hard surface composed of rocks and metal.

They also have surfaces dramatically altered during the heavy bombardment, which causes craters to appear on the surfaces of these planets.

The planets that are known as terrestrial within our Solar system are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.

Jovian Planets are those that differ completely from terrestrial planets. The water, ammonia and methane that they possess have frozen due to the distance between them and the Sun.

The planets with these characteristics are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

They are giant planets that are characterized by having a lot of gas, with Jupiter being the largest of them.

Unlike terrestrial planets, they do not have a surface.

Answer from: Quest

Magma forms by partial melting of upper mantle and crust. partial melt means that only a fraction of the available material forms a melt, and that the remainder stays solid. the partial melt rises because of its lower density and ascends through he crust. this is so conclusive mean the answer would be magma igneous rocks or balistic magma.
