The stars in space are _________________.?

Question

A. uniformly spread out.

B. distributed completely at random

C. chiefly in the Milky Way

D. mostly contained within widely separated galaxies

Answer 1

that's a relay Dodgy question. to tell the Truth. there are stars even in the void of space between Galaxy's but they will eventually be claimed by a galaxy. but i will go for D Because it says mostly contained in widely separated galaxies.

Answer 2

B. distributed completely at random

Answer 3

There's at least a bit of truth in all of these answers.  And none are completely true from any point of view.

A.  Least true.  Stars on the sky are not entirely uniformly spread out.  Neither are they uniformly spread out in three dimensional space.

B. True from the perspective of looking up at the sky.  Of course some are bunched together in clusters.

C. True from the perspective of looking up at the sky.  Other stars are too faint to see without a very powerful telescope.

D. This answer does not lend itself to the perspective of looking up at the sky.  It is mostly true in three dimensional space.

I'd answer "D", which is also the grade i'd give the person who wrote the question - which i assume is for a class.

Answer 4

D

Answer 5

Stars are widely and randomly spread out, but in galaxies there are higher concentrations of stars than those between galaxies.
