Question

analise observes a streak of light in the sky and says she is seeing a shooting star. what is she most likely observing? a falling star an asteroid a meteor a dwarf planet

Explanation:

A shooting - star is a common name for a meteor. When a small piece of space debris enters the Earth's atmosphere and burns up, it creates a streak of light, which we call a meteor. A falling star is an old - fashioned or poetic term for a meteor. An asteroid is a larger rocky body in space that doesn't typically create a streak of light like a shooting star when seen from Earth. A dwarf planet is a much larger celestial body and not what is observed as a shooting star.

Answer:

C. a meteor
