The head of a comet, also known as the coma, is the bright, glowing cloud of gas and dust that surrounds the nucleus. The nucleus is the solid, central core of the comet made up of ice, rock, and organic compounds. The tail of a comet is formed when the heat from the sun causes the nucleus to release gas and dust particles, which are then blown away from the comet by the solar wind, creating a long, glowing tail that points away from the sun.
What else can I help you with?
What are the nucleus coma and tail parts of?
A comet
What are three main parts of a comet?
A comet's 3 main parts are nucleus, coma and tail. The nucleus is the heart of a comet. A coma is the gas and dust that forms a cloud around the nucleus. The tail is a blazing streamer from the coma, it is million of miles long
What is the hazy layer that surrounds a comet and nucleus?
The "coma".
What three things make up a comet?
That depends. What are you asking, the parts of a comet or the composition of a comet? For the parts, there is the nucleus, which is the very center of the comet and what it is actually made of, then the coma surrounds the nucleus, then the tail trails behind it. A comet's nucleus is made up of dirty ice and rock. The tail is often made of gas or dust. Sometimes the comet has two tails, one of dust and one of gas. Hope this helps! :)
The nucleus and the coma compose the of the comet?
The nucleus and the coma compose the core of the comet. The nucleus is the solid, rocky part at the center, while the coma is the surrounding cloud of gas and dust that forms as the comet gets closer to the Sun and begins to vaporize.
What are the nucleus coma and tail parts of?
A comet
What are the parts of a comet after it forms a tail?
The coma, the nucleus, and the tail are the parts of a comet after the tail has formed.
What are 3 parts of a comet?
The three main parts of a comet are the nucleus (solid core made of ice and dust), coma (gaseous envelope surrounding the nucleus), and tails (two types, ion tail composed of ionized gas and dust tail made of dust particles).
Is the nucleus of a comet made of ice?
Yes a nucleus of a comet is made of ice because a comet nuclei are loose collections of ice, we need to break down the three main parts of a comet a nucleus, coma, and the tail.

WHAT IS COMA FROM COMET?
Its the nebulous shock around the nucleus of the comet. Basically its the head of the comet.
