Which does the existance of cosmic background radiation support?
A
the Big Bang Theory
B
the inflationary model
C
critical density
D
Hubble constant
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) is the cooled remnant of the first light that could ever travel freely throughout the Universe. This ‘fossil’ radiation, the furthest that any telescope can see, was released soon after the ‘Big Bang’. Scientists consider it as an echo or ‘shockwave’ of the Big Bang.

Detailed explanation-2: -How does the presence of cosmic background radiation support the big bang theory? The cosmic microwave background is a remnant of the Big Bang or the origin of the universe. According to the theory, the universe experienced rapid inflation and expansion when it was created.

Detailed explanation-3: -Its discovery and detailed observations of its properties are considered one of the major confirmations of the Big Bang. The discovery (by chance in 1965) of the cosmic background radiation suggests that the early universe was dominated by a radiation field, a field of extremely high temperature and pressure.
