  C) high-mass star D) intermediate-mass star

Question 2

How do X-ray measurements help us measure the amount of dark matter in galaxy clusters?
 
  A) X-rays are emitted by hot gas, and the intracluster gas is heated by collisions with dark matter particles. More dark matter leads to greater heating, and hence stronger X-ray emission.
  B) Dark matter absorbs X-rays. Therefore, more dark matter leads to weaker X-ray emission from galaxy clusters.
  C) X-rays are emitted by hot gas, and the intracluster gas is heated by the gravitational effects of dark matter. More dark matter leads to greater heating, and hence stronger X-ray emission.
