Question 1 • WV-Earth and Space Science A-CR
Einstein’s general theory of relativity describes gravity as the curvature of space-time caused by mass and energy. Thus, the idea that space-time bends due to masses in the universe is correct. The other choices either describe older or incomplete ideas: Newton described gravity as an attractive force between masses, and relativity treats space and time as connected rather than separate.
