A group of scientists are studying observable matter in a cluster of galaxies. They conclude that the cluster has only a small percentage of the mass required to keep it from flying apart. Why does the cluster remain intact?(1 point)

Responses

Baryonic matter provides the mass and gravity needed to keep the cluster together.

The orbital speed of the galaxies in the cluster is fast enough to keep the cluster intact.

Dark matter provides the mass and gravity needed to keep the cluster together.

The orbital speed of the galaxies in the cluster is slow enough to keep the cluster intact.
