Answer 1

Hint: Galaxy is a part of the universe whereas the Universe holds everything. The solar system, stars, galaxies and planets are all included in the Universe. Planet can be defined as a very bulky rounded object in space that moves around the sun or another star. A planet has its own gravity and it is a part of the universe.

Complete answer: The universe is a vast spread of space which contains all of everything which exists. The universe comprises all the galaxies, stars, and planets. According to scientists the universe is still expanding outward. Thus, the universe comprises planets as well as galaxies.
Hence, vast surrounding space is called the Universe.

Thus, Option(B) is correct.

Additional information:
The vast surrounding space is called the Universe. Because the universe consists of stars, galaxies, milky way, planets, comets, meteoroids. The universe is the vast expansion of space which contains all of everything which exists. The exact size of the universe is still unknown. Great scientists believe that the universe is still expanding outwards. Galaxy comprises gas, dust, dark matter, billions of stars and their solar system all these are held together by gravity. Now let us have a look at planets and the solar system. There are a total eight planets in our solar system. They are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. Beyond Neptune there are some small planets known as dwarfs planets. At present there are a total five dwarf planets known namely, Ceres, Pluto, Makemake, Haumea, and Eris.
 A Star is also a part of the Universe, a star is the shining spheroid of plasma which is held together by its own gravity.

Note:
We must have a clear understanding about the universe and space to solve such kinds of questions which are based on our knowledge. Such types of questions are based on our memory thus one must remember these small details.
