Question

The shape of a planet's orbit is influenced by gravity. True False

Answer 1

Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

The orbit of the planet is determined by the gravity. The gravitational pull depends the mass of the star and the planet. Greater the mass, larger would be the gravitational pull and smaller would be the orbit.

If the mass of the star is reduced, gravitational pull would decrease which would increase the orbital radius of the planet.

Thus, the given statement is true.

Answer 2

true. based on the star its orbiting's gravity, its distance from the star, size, an shape of the plant are all factors of orbt patterns.
