The composition of Mars atmosphere strongly resembles the atmosphere of which planet?
It is similar to the composition of the atmosphere of Venus. They are both made almost entirely of carbon dioxide.
What planet is made of mostly atmosphere?
None. By definition a rocky planet is mostly rock. Venus, by far, has the densest atmosphere of the terrestrial planets, but the planet itself is mostly rock and is similar in composition to Earth.
Distance from Sun Planet A 0.72AU Planet B 9.54 AU. Planet composition rocky mantle iron core hydrogen helium Gases in atmosphere very dense atmosphere that is 96.5 poisonous?
Based on the distances provided, Planet A is Venus and Planet B is Saturn
What is the atmosphere of the goldilocks planet like?
It can vary substantially. Whether a planet is a Goldilocks planet is based only on its distance from the star it orbits. If a planet orbits at the right distance that it might be the right temperature to support liquid water, it is called a Goldilocks planet. The nature of the atmosphere would still be affected by factors such as the planet's composition, mass, and evolutionary history.
Which planet's atmosphere is blue poisonous and composed of methane?
Neptune is the most blue planet, due to methane in it's atmosphere absorbing the red light. It's atmosphere is mainly hydrogen and helium though and the cold temperatures would be more of a concern than the actual atmospheric composition.
What is the composition of the atmosphere of planet Eris?
Eris has a frozen atmosphere.
What is the dwarf planet Eris's composition of atmosphere?
Eris has a frozen atmosphere.
How does the composition of earth atmosphere differ from the composition of the atmosphere of the gas giant planet?
The Gas Giants have a deep gas atmosphere and earth have a not so deep atmosphere
The composition of Mars atmosphere strongly resembles the atmosphere of which planet?
It is similar to the composition of the atmosphere of Venus. They are both made almost entirely of carbon dioxide.
What is Saturns' atmosphere composition?
It is a gassy planet like Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune
What properties make a terrestrial planet?
An average temperature, stable atmosphere, and solid composition.
What planet is made of mostly atmosphere?
None. By definition a rocky planet is mostly rock. Venus, by far, has the densest atmosphere of the terrestrial planets, but the planet itself is mostly rock and is similar in composition to Earth.

Based on the distances provided, Planet A is Venus and Planet B is Saturn
What keeps atmospheres around planets?
The planet's gravity. However, some atoms, or molecules, will escape, and the atmosphere will tend to gradually "evaporate". How fast this happens depends a lot on the planet's mass; also on the temperature and the composition of the atmosphere.

Why are the temperatures of each terrestrial planet different than earth?
Their distance from the Sun as well as their atmosphere - presence or absence as well as its composition (if present)..
