Based on discoveries to date, which of the following conclusions is justified? a) most stars have one or more terrestrial planets orbiting within their habitable zones. b) planets are common, but planets as small as earth are extremely rare. c) planetary systems are common and planets similar in size to earth are also common. d) although planetary systems are common, few resemble ours with terrestrial planets near the sun and jovian planets far from the sun.

Based on discoveries to date, the conclusion as “Planetary systems are common and planets similar in size to Earth are also common” is justified.

Option C

Explanation:

Some studies show that on average, each star has at least single planet. This means that most stars, such as the Solar System, possess planets (otherwise exoplanets). It is known that small planets (more or less Earthly or slightly larger) are more common than giant planets. The mediocrity principles state that planet like Earth should be universal in the universe, while the rare earth hypothesis says they are extremely rare.

Size is often considered an important factor, because planets the size of the Earth are probably more terrestrial and can hold the earth's atmosphere. The planetary system is a series of gravitational celestial objects orbiting a star or galaxy. Generally, planetary systems describe systems with one or more planets, although such systems may also consist of bodies such as dwarf planets, asteroids and the like.

answer; (d) spontaneous processes are characterized by the overall conversion of order to disorder;

answer: d. a cme increases the amount of energy in the solar wind

explanation:

coronal mass ejections, also called cmes, are large clouds of plasma and magnetic field that erupt from the sun. only when the cloud is aimed at earth will the cme hit earth and therefore cause impacts. high-speed solar wind streams come from areas on the sun known as coronal holes.
