My solar system has two types of planets: terrestrials and jovians. The solar nebula hypothesis offers what explanation for the different compositions of these two types of planets? A. The large gravitational forces of Jupiter tended to prevent planet formation in the inner solar system and eventually attracted most of the material into the region of the Jovian planets. B. During condensation, the heavier elements tended to sink nearer the Sun and, being rare, only provided enough material to build the relatively small terrestrial planets. C. The terrestrial planets were formed near the Sun where, because of the high temperatures, only heavier elements were able to condense. D. During the collapse of the gaseous nebula, most of the material tended to collect far from the Sun because of the large centrifugal forces, which provided the necessary material to build the large Jovian planets.

Explanation:

The solar nebular hypothesis is the theory of how the earth came to be as proposed and believed by most scientists. It states that the solar system was formed from a nebular which is a large collection of dust. As the condensation of the nebular progressed, the heavier materials which could withstand higher temperatures formed closer to the sun. Because these materials were not so much the planets formed by them were not large in size.

However, the Jovian planets formed beyond the frost line which could sustain icy compounds. The ices that formed these planets were much thus accounting for their larger sizes. Solar winds blew off the lighter hydrogen and helium elements leading to their accumulation far away from the sun.
