Answer 1

1. nebula2. accretion disk3. accrete4. blown away5. gas giants6. terrestrial planets, gas giants

Answer 2

## Step 1The first blank in the text refers to the initial stage of planet formation, which is the condensation of a large cloud of dust and gas. This process is known as a nebula.## Step 2The second blank refers to the flat circle that forms around the protostar due to the force of gravity. This is known as the accretion disk.## Step 3The third blank refers to the process where heavy elements in the accretion disk clump together due to their weight. This process is known as accretion.## Step 4The fourth blank refers to the fact that light elements are pushed away from the sun due to their lower density and the force of the solar wind. This is known as being blown away.## Step 5The fifth blank refers to the fact that planets made of light elements are typically made of gas. These are known as gas giants.## Step 6The sixth blank refers to the two main categories of planets based on their composition and size. These are terrestrial planets and gas giants.
