What accommodations have been designed to protect astronauts from micrometeoroids hitting their spacesuits?
A
jet packs
B
land rovers
C
multilayered spacesuits
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Spacesuits enable humans to survive and work in space. None of these protections are available in space. To survive there, astronauts must wear an extravehicular mobility unit (EMU)-commonly called a spacesuit. An astronaut’s spacesuit contains many different parts.

Detailed explanation-2: -Provide food that provides astronauts with more energy. Outfit the space station with exercise equipment. Increase the oxygen levels inside the space station. Design spacesuits that are lighter and easier to wear.

Detailed explanation-3: -Astronauts are protected from collisions with micrometeoroids due to multiple layers of durable fabrics such as Kevlar. Astronauts are protected from radiation by reflective coatings built into the suits.

Detailed explanation-4: -Space is extremely cold and filled with dangerous radiation. Without protection, an astronaut would quickly die in space. Spacesuits are specially designed to protect astronauts from the cold, radiation and low pressure in space. They also provide air to breathe.
