Big Book Test 2 - Section 1 - Ques 21

Hello,
In lines 48 - 52, since they’re trying to account for Mars - an unlikely source for shergottites, by comparing the absence of lunar meteorites on Earth, I inferred a Block of 4 from line 51.

Moon :right_arrow: smaller size + closer to Earth

Mars :right_arrow: larger size + farther from Earth

Basis this, I also chose the Option II for Q21 which was wrong. I’m trying to understand if I read too much into the text and incorrectly interpreted a Block of 4 that doesn’t exist? Also, when they talk about Moon’s smaller size and closer proximity to Earth, what are they stating this in relation to - isn’t it Mars only?

Thank you.

Hi.
Even though throughtout the passage it is mentioned that shergottites are dervied from large planets, there is no mention about its size comaprable to Earth. We dont know if the size of large planet is larger than Earth.
Therefore, I eliminated 2 option.

Okay thank you
