Answer 1

The most accurate statement regarding the interaction between dark matter and baryonic gas and dust is:

The gravity of dark matter causes baryonic gas and dust to clump together.

In astrophysical contexts, dark matter's gravitational influence is a key factor in the formation of structures in the universe, including galaxies and clusters of galaxies. Dark matter does not emit electromagnetic radiation, so the other statements involving electromagnetic radiation do not apply.
