Answer:

D!

Explanation:

The Sun's heat vaporizes some of the comet's material, releasing dust particles that were trapped in the ice. A combination of solar radiation pressure and solar wind blow away gas and dust from the comet's nucleus, forming two separate tails: the ion tail and the dust tail.

Hope this helps!
