C. Astrology is the only one of these that is not a science; it is the profiling of different birth dates with constellations and planet/star arrangements that in a way that, supposedly, predicts your future or describes your personality. It's not based on fact. Astronomy is different: it is the study of stars, planets, galaxies in relation to one another and facts about how space and time interact, etc.
