Snowcapped mountains are found on which of the following planet:
The correct answer is C. Pluto. While often thought of as a barren, icy dwarf planet, Pluto possesses a surprisingly complex and active surface, including towering mountains that are indeed "snowcapped." However, this "snow" is not water ice but rather frozen methane and nitrogen, which condense from Pluto's thin atmosphere and accumulate on the peaks of mountains composed primarily of water ice. The New Horizons mission provided stunning images revealing these dramatic landscapes. Mars has polar ice caps made of water ice and frozen carbon dioxide, but its mountains are not typically described as snowcapped in the same way as Pluto's. Uranus, an ice giant, lacks a solid surface with distinct mountains and snowcaps.
