Question 2

What factor caused different planets to form out of different types of material?
 
  A) The angular momentum of the forming planet; faster rotating planets lost the lightest elements.

  C) The variation in temperature throughout the solar nebula; the higher the temperature, the lower the percentage of light elements in the forming planet.
  D) The angular momentum of the solar nebula pushed the heavy elements towards the outer regions of the nebula.
  E) The innate variation of chemical composition of the original nebula; the outer parts of the nebula contained a greater abundance of heavy elements.
