Question
Chapter 19, Problem 1MC
To determine
How stars are distributed in space.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1MC
Option (d)
Explanation of Solution
Stars are present in galaxies. The spaces between galaxies are mostly empty space.
These stars are not randomly nor uniformly distributed in the universe.
Thus option (d) is correct.
Conclusion:
Stars are present in galaxies. Thus option (d) is correct.
Since stars are not uniformly distributed in the space, option (a) is incorrect.
Since starts are not distributed randomly, option (b) is incorrect.
Stars are present outside the Milky Way also. Thus option (c) is incorrect.
