The Kuiper Belt is larger
The asteroid belt orbits between the rocky planets and the gas giants.
because of the asteroid belt
Yes, the mass of the Kuiper belt exceeds that of the asteroid belt, and it is something like 20 to 200 times more massive. The Kuiper belt is a long way away, and the objects in it are mostly small, so it is through gravimetric studies that we "guestimate" the Kuiper belt's mass. A link can be found below for more information.
No. Comets come from beyond the asteroid belt, mostly from a region called the Kuiper Belt, beyond the orbit of Neptune.
In the Kuiper Belt, apart from Ceres which is in the Asteroid Belt.
The sun has 2 belts ,the asteroid and the kuiper belt.
It's between Mars and Jupiter. The Kuiper Belt is near Neptune.
No. The asteroid belt is an area between Mars and Jupiter where most of the solar system's asteroids orbit. The Kupier belt is much farther out. It is a region that contains a large number of comets orbiting beyond Neptune.
The Oort cloud
Rocky asteroids. Icy comets often live in and come from the Kuiper Belt.
No. The belt is a region of the outer solar system similar to the asteroid belt where millions of comets orbit.
