Question 7 • HOPE Scholars- Science Grade 8

Where is the Oort cloud located?

Answer
A
between the orbit of Mars and the orbit of Jupiter
B
in the different orbits between the sun and Neptune
C
beyond the Kuiper belt, at the farthest end of the solar system
D
all over the solar system and between the orbits of the planets

Explanation

The Oort cloud is a vast, distant region of icy objects surrounding the solar system, well beyond Neptune and the Kuiper belt. Therefore, “beyond the Kuiper belt, at the farthest end of the solar system” is correct. It is not located among the inner planets or spread through the planetary orbits.
