Can you describe the surface of the Jovian planets?
The Jovian planets are gas giants and have no surface.
How do the surface materials of the inner and outer planets differ?
The inner planets' surface materials differ from the outer planets because the inner planets have rocky surfaces and the outer planets have gas surfaces.
What type of surface do terrestrial planets have?
the surface is solid
Why are the inner planets different to the outer planets?
The inner planets are all considered rocky planets in that under atmospheric layers, they have a rocky surface. The outer planets are made of gas and liquid, and are called gas giants. They have no solid surface. Also, all the outer planets have rings while the inner planets do not.
Why are inner planets also called rocky planets?
The inner planets, except earth, are made up of rocks. They have a hard surface. The earth would be one of these except we have water. The outer planets are gas giants and do not have a solid surface.
Does the Yangtze river contain 20 percent of the planets surface fresh water?
No, all the freshwater rivers out together in the world only make up 3% of the world's freshwater!
70 percent is covered with water?
About 70 percent of the earth's surface is covered with water. Our body contains about 70 percent of water too.

What is a mineral silicate?
A silicate mineral is a mineral that contains both silica and oxygen. They make up about 95 percent of the Earth's surface.
Which of the outer planets has a surface more similar to the inner planets than to the outer planets?
None of them do. All the outer planets are gas planets while all the inner planets are rocky. You might be thinking of Pluto. It has a solid surface, but it is no longer considered a planet.
What planets have the hottest surface?
earth

Why is the surface temperature of Venus higher than the other surface temperatures of the inner planets?
The surface temperature of Venus is higher than the surface temperatures of the other inner planets because of its thick atmosphere.
