- A A
- B B
- C C
- D D
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
When a piece of rock is brought back to Earth from the Moon, its mass stays the same. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, and it remains constant regardless of the location. Similarly, the amount of matter the rock contains also stays the same because matter cannot be created or destroyed. Therefore, the correct answer is C - Stays the same.
