In general, how does the size and location of a star's habitable zone depend on the star's mass?
A) the smaller (less massive) the star, the smaller and the closer-in the habitable zone B) the smaller (less massive) the star, the larger and the closer-in the habitable zone C) the smaller (less massive) the star, the larger and the farther-out the habitable zone D) The habitable zone is always about the same size, but its location moves inward for smaller stars.
