They are alike because they are all planets and they orbit around the same star (the Sun.) They are also in the same solar system.

How are the planets classifications as a terrestrial plaent or gas giant generally related to their densities?
Rocky planets are denser than gas giants.
Are Jupiter and Saturn rocky planets or gas giants?
They are both gas giants
Are the rocky planets larger or smaller compared to gas giants?
The rocky inner planets are much smaller. That's why the giants are called giants.
Is this true or false that the inner plants are gas giants and the outer planets are rocky?
False. The outer planets are gas giants (although they have a solid core). The inner planets are 'rocky'.
How do the four rocky planets compare to the four gas giants in size?
All four rocky planets are much smaller than gas planets.
What type of mars is it rocky or gas planet?
Mars is a rocky planet.....the 4 inner planets are rocky and the 4 outer planets are gas (gas giants)
What do the inner planets consit of?
The inner planets are rocky and the outer planets are gas giants.
How do the four rocky planets compare to the four gas giants size?
All four rocky planets are much smaller than gas planets.
How are rocky plants different then gas giants?
Please tell me you mean Planets not Plants, that is an odd image. Rocky Planets are made mostly of Rock ie solid stuff. Gas Giants are made mostly of Gas. Most gas giants are much bigger than the rocky planets. So far most of the extra solar planets are gas giants (they are bigger so easier to find)
Which group of planets is more massive than the group of rocky planets?
The gas giants.
Inner planets compared to outer planets?
Inner Planets: Are rocky planets and smallOuter Planets: Are gas giants and giant
What are the 5 major differences in Gas Giants and Rocky planets?
The five major differences between the gas giant planets and the rocky planets are as follows: 1. Gas giants are larger, both in diameter and in mass. 2. Gas giants have a much larger proportion of hydrogen and other light weight elements. Rocky planets have more rock. 3. Gas giants are farther away from the sun. 4. Gas giants are much colder. 5. Gas giants are made mostly (in some cases, perhaps entirely) of gas, while rocky planets are mostly solid with comparatively little gas. Edit: Here's another, if you want 6 differences: The Gas Giants have extensive systems of moons (and they have rings too).
