Question

which statements about our solar system are false?
□ our solar system is made up of the sun and other objects that orbit the sun.
□ the sun is the only star in our solar system.
□ dwarf planets have several other bodies in their path orbiting the sun just as they do.
□ the kuiper belt is between uranus and neptune.
□ a large number of irregularly shaped comets are located in a vast ring between the orbits of mars and jupi

Explanation:

Answer:

  • Dwarf planets have several other bodies in their path orbiting the Sun just as they do.
  • The Kuiper Belt is between Uranus and Neptune.
  • A large number of irregularly shaped comets are located in a vast ring between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.

(Note: The first two statements are true: "Our solar system is made up of the Sun and other objects that orbit the Sun" and "The Sun is the only star in our solar system" are correct. The last three (as listed above) are false. For the last option, the description likely refers to the asteroid belt (between Mars and Jupiter) which has asteroids, not comets, and comets are more associated with the Kuiper Belt or Oort Cloud; also, the Kuiper Belt is beyond Neptune, not between Uranus and Neptune; and dwarf planets (unlike full planets) do not clear their orbital path of other bodies.)
