Which of the following statements is/are true regarding a nebula?
It is believed that each planet in our solar system began as its own nebula.
Over time, a nebula becomes cooler and grows in size.
The density of a nebula is greatest at the edges and least in the center.
There are no nebulas left in our galaxy because they have all formed stars and planets.
Over time, a star will form at the center of a nebula.
