Answer:
A Comet Has Two Types of Tail
One is a plasma trail, which draws a straight line like a broomstick. The other is a dust tail, which opens like the bristles on a broom. The plasma tail comprises electrons and ions that are ionized by the sun's ultraviolet radiation. The dust tail consists of micrometer-scale particles.
Hope it helps you
A comet is an icy, small Solar System body that, when passing close to the Sun, warms and begins to release gases, a process called outgassing.
It have two tails.
