Question

question 12 of 28 why are planets spherical? a. radiation from the sun presses them together. b. below - freezing temperatures condense them. c. constant motion smooths and rounds all the edges. d. gravity pulls all the matter inward evenly.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Planets are spherical because their own gravity pulls all the matter inward evenly. Gravity acts as a force that tries to make the mass of a planet as compact as possible, resulting in a spherical shape. Radiation from the sun does not press planets together in this way, below - freezing temperatures don't condense planets into a spherical shape, and constant motion is not the main factor for their spherical form.

Answer:

D. Gravity pulls all the matter inward evenly.
