Here is a simple test for You-
Kepler's Third Law expresses the relationship between the semi-major axis of a planet's orbit and its orbital period: the further a planet's orbit is from the Sun, the longer the planet's period of revolution around the Sun.
the further a planet's orbit is from the Sun, the longer the planet's period of revolution around the Sun when a planet's orbit is further from the Sun, the longer the planet's period of revolution around the Sun the further a planet's orbit is from the Sun, thereby the planet's period of revolution around the Sun is that much longer when a planet's orbit is further from the Sun, the planet's period of revolution around the Sun being that much longer by having an orbit further from the Sun, a planet also having a period of revolution around the Sun being that much longer
a) the further a planet's orbit is from the Sun, the longer the planet's period of revolution around the Sun
b) when a planet's orbit is further from the Sun, the longer the planet's period of revolution around the Sun
c) the further a planet's orbit is from the Sun, thereby the planet's period of revolution around the Sun is that much longer
d) when a planet's orbit is further from the Sun, the planet's period of revolution around the Sun being that much longer
e) by having an orbit further from the Sun, a planet also having a period of revolution around the Sun being that much longer
The above question is testing a very rare Idiom-
"the" [comparative adjective or adverb] [independent clause about P], "the" [comparative adjective or adverb] [independent clause about Q]
