A. Elliptical
B. Highly elliptical
C. Circular
D. Parabolic
Check Answer
The correct answer is B) Highly elliptical.
Comets are small celestial objects that orbit the Sun in highly elliptical paths. They are made up of a mixture of dust, ice, and other volatile materials, and they typically have a relatively small, solid nucleus surrounded by a coma, or cloud of gas and dust. As a comet approaches the Sun, the heat of the Sun causes the coma to expand, creating a bright, glowing halo around the nucleus. The tails of comets always point away from the Sun, and they are created by the solar wind pushing against the coma.
