Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
The illustration is intended to show that something of enormous size when reduced as significantly as this article is discussing becomes a unit we can easily recognize - a bathroom sink.
Choice (A) is incorrect; there is no attempt in this article to divide the different size of stars.
Choice (B) is incorrect; at first glance this would seem correct-however, the term “mater existing there” renders this a false statement.
Choice (C) is incorrect; again, at first glance this appears correct-however, remember the need to separate what we think we know from what is in the article. The illustration is used to assure that we DO understand.
Choice (E) is incorrect; there is nothing in the article to support this statement.
