The formation of which of the following cannot be explained by the nebular model?

Answer
A
The Sun
B
The planets in our solar system
C
The Milky Way galaxy
D
Comets and asteroids

Explanation

The nebular model describes how the solar system formed from a rotating cloud of gas and dust. It accounts for the Sun, the planets, and smaller objects such as comets and asteroids. The Milky Way galaxy formed on a much larger scale, so its formation is not explained by the solar nebular model.
