Cheyenne Perkins · Answer 1

The Earth is thought to have been formed about 4.6 billion years ago by collisions from a cloud of hydrogen, helium, rock, ice and other materials. These were pulled together by gravity to form objects in and around Earth like - asteroids and small early planets called planetesimals.

So, the best possible answer to this question will be option D - to harden materials to form different parts of Earth's layers.
