What is the difference between an Apollo asteroid and an Amor asteroid?
A)   Apollo asteroids cross the orbit of the Earth, whereas Amor asteroids cross the orbit of Mars but not the Earth's orbit.
B)   Apollo asteroids orbit entirely inside the Earth's orbit and therefore do not cross it, whereas Amor asteroids cross the Earth's orbit and therefore might hit the Earth.
C)   Apollo asteroids pass near terrestrial planets, whereas Amor asteroids remain in the same orbit as Jupiter.
D)   Apollo asteroids approach the orbit of Mercury, whereas Amor asteroids pass only within the orbit of the Earth.
