Modded SAT Question Bank by Abdullah Mallik

While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:

  • Stars form in a galaxy when gravity causes a massive cloud of dust and gas to collapse.
  • A galaxy in a phase of rapid star formation is called a starburst galaxy.
  • Quenching is a process in which a galaxy loses star-forming gas.
  • A galaxy that no longer forms stars is called a quenched galaxy.
  • A quenched galaxy has entered the poststarburst phase.

The student wants to explain what a quenched galaxy is. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?

  1. Before quenching, a starburst galaxy will form stars at a rapid rate.

  2. When it becomes quenched, a starburst galaxy enters the poststarburst phase.

  3. Having entered the poststarburst phase, a quenched galaxy is one that no longer forms stars.

  4. A starburst galaxy will lose star-forming gas and eventually become quenched.
