The tendency of an object to resist a change in motion-law that states that an object in motion has a tendency to remain in motion-also plays a role in keeping the planets in a curved orbit around the sun
A
law of universal gravitation
B
gravity
C
astronomical law
D
inertia
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -This tendency to resist changes in their state of motion is described as inertia. Inertia: the resistance an object has to a change in its state of motion.

Detailed explanation-2: -This tendency of an object to resist its initial state of motion is called inertia.

Detailed explanation-3: -Newton’s First Law of Motion Objects at rest stay at rest, Objects in motion stay in motion, Until something changes its motion. Things continue doing what they are doing unless a force is applied to it. Objects have a natural tendency to resist change. This is INERTIA.

Detailed explanation-4: -Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion.
