From the cosmic background radiation, what can scientists infer that the universe was like after the big bang?

A. Very small
B. Hot
C. The same average temperature as it is today.
D. Cooler than it is today.
Is the answer C? Thank you for the help😊

You guys are being quite mean

Whoever that teacher is needs to learn how to be nice to children so the kid doesn't understand science doesn't mean you should treat him rudely.

Whoever those people are they need to learn how to be nice to children so the kid doesn't understand science doesn't mean you should treat him rudely.

i dont believe in the big bang either

you guys aren't as much help as i thought.

guys be nice,we're all people here, jeez, how would you guys feel if someone was being rude to you?

I'm sorry I bothered you. I did read the whole thing and that's what I read.

Honestly, I think people need to take a chill pill?

omg be nice literally some people don’t understand things as quickly as others.

OMG ITS SIMPLE THE ANSWER IS HOT WERE NOT TRYING TO BE MEAN ITS JUST HE NEEDS TO READ IT OVER ITS CALLED CLOSE READING

@kat your very rude just because we are taught something doesn't mean we have to believe it, some people are religious and believe that gods made everything so really you should take other people thoughts and beliefs into consideration before you be so rude to someone :)

Thomas is a bit of a prong, isn't he?

I don't believe in the Big Bang theory either because I am a Christian. This quiz is very hard for people who don't know about it.

what happened here, guys

No.

Read this to find your answer.

From what I read is it D? Thanks Ms. Sue.

You make me feel stupid. Do you like to make people cry? I did read it and if you push the blue line that said cosmic background radiation it says cooler.

The average temperature of the universe today is approximately 2.73 kelvins (−270.42 °C; −454.76 °F), based on measurements of cosmic microwave background radiation. What was it like back then?

Hot?

Compare today's temperature of the universe to the temperature of the universe right after the big bang. That will give you your answer.

oh my god the answer is hot whether you believe in the big bang or not its irrelevant just accept the help and move on.

is* my bad

so the answer is hot right because im stuck on that too???

The answer is hot

CHILL LMAOOO

And a little farther down in the article:

"For the first 380,000 years or so, the universe was essentially too hot for light to shine, according to France's National Center of Space Research (Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales,or CNES). The heat of creation smashed atoms together with enough force to break them up into a dense plasma, an opaque soup of protons, neutrons and electrons that scattered light like fog."

GMTA, Thomas.

But my question says after the big bang not during plus I don't understand science I don't believe in big bang theory.

Thank you Ms. Sue

I'm sorry but please reread the article. We even quoted the answers for you but you don't want to put any effort into reading them and trying to figure out what the quotes are saying. You want the answer to be handed you.

You obvously didn't read it. The very first sentence in that post the Ms. Sue posted is "The universe was born with the Big Bang as an unimaginably hot, dense point."

... how did you miss that??

2 - 3 paragraphs down it says...

"For the first 380,000 years or so, the universe was essentially too hot for light to shine, according to France's National Center of Space Research "

Miss that too?

No. It's not D. It's obvious you didn't read the site I posted.

Please do not post this question again.

you don't believe in the big bang theory? you really need to pay attention in class
