Rutherford tracked the motion of tiny, positively charged particles shot through a thin sheet of gold foil. Some particles traveled in a straight line and some were deflected at different angles.Which statement best describes what Rutherford concluded from the motion of the particles?

A
Some particles traveled through empty parts of the atoms and some particles were deflected by neutrons.
B
Some particles traveled through empty parts of the atom and some particles were deflected by electrons.
C
Some particles traveled through empty parts of the atom and some particles were deflected by the orbits of atoms.
D
Some particles traveled through empty parts of the atom and some particles were deflected by small areas of high-density positive charge in atoms.
