• B) as an extra "gravity" that would hold the universe against continuous expansion
• C) as antimatter that, by annihilating real matter, would translate matter into energy, thereby maintaining a constant mass density in a condensing universe
• D) as a form of energy that, on its own, would make the universe expand-a form of antigravity
