d) Distance and density are in exact agreement

Explanation:

Distance From the sun is related to the density of the planets as most of the terrestrial planet have rocky cores and are made up of solid metals so, the density remains stable as the case of the earth having a density of 5.5g/cm cube. Planets near to the sun like the mercury have a density of 5.4g/cm cube and planets away from the sun like Saturn have a density of 1.2g/cm cube and Jupiter has 1.3g/cm cube. Thus it can be estimated that the nearness to the sun impacts the amount of the gases and gravity the planets can absorb. Four least dense planets are Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, and Jupiter the farther we go density decreases as these planets tend to made entirely on gas and condensed icy crystals. As the solars winds blow away the gases from terrestrial planets
