Answer: Option C
Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:
Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system. Although Venus is not the planet closest to the sun, its dense atmosphere traps heat in a runaway version of the greenhouse effect that warms Earth. As a result, temperatures on Venus reach 870° Fahrenheit (465° Celsius), more than hot enough to melt lead.
