The picture below shows a NASA image of the Oort cloud, a sphere of objects that are thought to surround Earth's solar system at a distance of up to one light-year from the Sun. If the Oort cloud does exist, which of the following could explain why the objects in it may have formed this spherical shape?
A
They are held in orbits by the Sun's gravitational force.

B
They are held in Earth's solar system by Neptune's magnetic field.

C
They float freely in space because the Sun's gravitational force is too weak to hold them in orbit.

D
They are held in stationary positions around Earth's solar system by other stars in space.

56.16 gregor mendel was the first scientist to use statistics to analyze scientific data. before mendel's experiments, scientists believed that organisms acquired traits from their environment and passed them on to their offspring. after mendel's discoveries were accepted, scientists realized that traits passed to offspring were the result of genes being passed from parents to offspring. this is an example of pls
