B. Impact theory
C. Capture theory
D. Synchronous theory

Respuesta :

Answer:

C. Capture theory

Step-by-step explanation:

- The capture theory states that the moon originated in some other part of the solar system and later it was captured by the gravitational pull of our planet.

- The co-formation theory states that the moon formed simultaneously with the earth from the same nebula that formed the solar system.

- The impact theory states the moon formed of a chunk of earth separated form it after a large meteorite impact.

-  The synchronous theory is not a theory about the formation of the moon.

We can conclude that the correct answer is C. Capture theory.
