Answer to Question 1

Answer: D

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A star is a luminous astronomical body fired by thermonuclear fusion in its core. A planet is an astronomical body smaller than a star, which is not powered by nuclear fusion in its core. All bodies with any temperature glow. Because of a star's relatively high temperature, its glow is in and beyond the visible range of frequencies, whereas the glow of a planet is in the infrared.
