  1. The correct statements about black holes are:

    A. Black holes are dense bodies occupying small areas in space.

    C. Black holes start off as large stars.

    Explanation:

    A black hole is formed from the remnants of a large star that has undergone gravitational collapse after exhausting its nuclear fuel. This process typically occurs in massive stars, leading to the formation of a point of infinite density called a singularity, which occupies a very small area but is incredibly dense.
