Solution
The correct option is D Asteroids
Small,
airless rocky bodies revolving around the sun between the orbits of Mars and
Jupiter that are too small to be called planets are asteroids. They are also
known as minor planets. Asteroids are leftovers from the formation of solar
system. Mass of asteroids is less than that of Earth’s moon. But asteroids can
be dangerous. Many asteroids have hit the Earth in the past and more will hit
in the future.
