What best describes the model of a comet?

A comet is a small celestial body composed of ice, rock, dust, and frozen gases that orbits the Sun in an elongated orbit. When a comet approaches the Sun, its surface materials vaporize, creating a bright, glowing coma and tail that point away from the Sun due to solar wind. Comets are considered remnants from the early formation of the solar system and provide valuable information to scientists studying the history and composition of our solar system.

What is something made up of frozen volatile materials?

Dry Ice (frozen Carbon Dioxide) is an example of a frozen volatile material. Water ice is also considered a frozen volatile material which simply means a substance can evaporate at normal temperatures and pressures. NASA found examples of such materials in Mercury's polar caps. Comets also contain frozen volatile materials.

What diretions does the tail of a comet point?

A comet's "tail" points away from the Sun. Moving away from the Sun, that means that the comet is moving "tail-first" through space. This is because the comet's tail is actually just wisps of gas and dust melting out of the "nucleus" or head of the comet. The light of the Sun actually has a pressure, and this solar pressure blows the dusty gas away from the comet itself. It is this dusty gas reflecting the Sun's light that we see.
