In our solar system, the inter-planetary region has chunks of matter called asteroids. They a) will not move around the sun since they have very small masses compared to the sun b) will move in an irregular way because of their small masses and will drift away outer space c) will move around the sun in closed orbits but not obey Kepler’s laws d) will move in orbits like planets and obey Kepler’s laws

Correct option is D) Asteroids will move in orbits like planets and obey Kepler's law because they are also being acted upon by central gravitational forces.
