Solution

The correct option is A Mars
  • Mars is a cold desert world and is half the size of Earth. Mars is sometimes called the Red Planet because of rusty iron in the ground.
  • Mars has a very thin atmosphere composed mostly of the tiny amount of carbon dioxide (95.3%), nitrogen (2.7%), argon (1.6%) and traces of oxygen (0.15%) and water (0.03%).
