Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (B) bright enough

Explanation

When “enough” modifies an adjective, it follows that adjective: “bright enough.” The resulting sentence says Saturn has sufficient brightness to be visible. The other choices use the wrong word order or introduce an unmatched “as.” Thus **B**.
