Answer:

B. The more distant object is larger

Explanation:

Since the chord is defined as the product of angle [tex] \theta[/tex] and distance radius r, if 2 objects have the same apparent angular size as seen from Earth, object with greater radius distance from Earth would yield greater product, and so is its size.
