A. Underline the word or phrase in the parenthesis that completes each of the
following sentences.

1. (Baryonic Matter, Dark Matter, Dark Energy) consisting of protons, electrons,

and neutrons that comprises atoms, planets, stars, galaxies, and other bodies.

2. Something that has gravity but does not emit light (Baryonic Matter, Dark Matter,
Dark Energy).

3. An early stage in the formation of a star resulting from the gravitational collapse of
gases (Protostar, Thermonuclear reaction, Main Sequence Stars).

4. A nuclear a nuclear fusion reaction responsible for the energy produced by stars
(Protostar, Thermonuclear reaction, Main Sequence Stars).

5. A creator god who, alone in a dark and water-covered Earth, felt an intense
stomach pain and then vomited the stars, sun, and moon. (Bumba, Perusha, Kuba).

6. (Galaxy, Sun, Main Sequence Stars) a cluster of billions of stars and clusters of
galaxies form super clusters.

7. An accidental discovery that there is a pervasive cosmic microwave background

(CMB) radiation in the universe (Pinenzias and Wilson, Bondi, Gould and Hoyle).

7. (Pinenzias and Wilson, Bondi, Gould and Hoyle) formulated the Steady State
Model.

8. The nuclear reaction that converts hydrogen into helium is called (fission, fusion,
radiation).

8. General Theory of Relativity (Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton, Aristotle).

9. Presently, the center of the universe is (Earth, Mars, Sun).

10. Best theory to explain the origin of the universe (Creationist, Big Bang, Steady
State Model).

Luster, Color).

16. It is the ratio of the weight of a mineral to the weight of an equal volume of water
(Luster, Hardness, Specific Gravity).

17. It is a measure of the resistance of a mineral to abrasion (Luster, Hardness,

Specific Gravity).
