The correct option is C Mars and Jupiter
The main asteroid belt is located between the orbits of the planets Mars and Jupiter. Its total mass is only about 18% of the Moon's mass. Ceres is the largest known object in the asteroid belt with a diameter of about 940 km, large enough to be classified as a dwarf planet, like Pluto.
