The largest structure on defining the group of objects held together.
Answer to Problem 9TE
The galaxy is the largest structure, which held a group of objects together.
Explanation of Solution
The galaxy consists of millions of star and gaseous clouds in it, it is the largest gravitational bound object. It is a collection of a star system, planets and everything that is inside in it, such as planets, stars, asteroids, comets, dwarf planets, gas, dust and more.
In our Milky Way galaxy, there are hundreds of Sun present and thousands of planets, such as Earth. Thus we can say that the biggest structure present in the universe is galaxy. We cannot compare the size of galaxies as we don’t have their limits.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the galaxy is the largest structure, which held a group of objects together.
