Pluto is considered to be two different things.
1. Pluto is a dwarf planet. It is in hydrostatic equilibrium (round) and it orbits the sun, but it has not cleared its neighborhood of debris.
What's its neighborhood? The Kuiper belt, a collection of icy objects similar to comets that somewhat resembles the asteroid belt. This leads to its second classification.
2. Pluto is a Kuiper Belt Object (KBO). Specifically, it's classified as a plutino - an object within a certain zone of the Kuiper Belt.
A Dwarf Planet because a few years ago scientists discovered 30 planet-like rocks that were the size of Pluto and didn't want to name 30 new planets so they labeled them AND Pluto as dwarf planets.
only as a heavenly body ----------------------------------------- a planetessimal, similar to a comet.
Since 2006 Pluto Has Been Considered A Dwarf-Planet
Pluto is now classified as a dwarf planet I believe it is a blue dwarf Pluto is now classified as a dwarf planet I believe it is a blue dwarf
Pluto is a planet that is the furthest from the sun.(More examples of planets like pluto are(Mercury,venus ,earth jupiter...)
A Dwarf Planet .
It is now classified as a dwarf planet.
an asteroid
a dwarft planet
Yes because Pluto is no longer in our solar system and the planets after Pluto are not in our solar system
No. Pluto orbits in our solar system.
Pluto is a member of the solar system because any object in the solar system is a member of the solar system. However, if you were asking if Pluto is a planet in the solar system then the answer is no. Pluto used to be a planet but is now considered a dwarf planet.
Yes and no. It was decided on August 24, 2006 that Pluto be classified a dwarf planet. Because dwarf planets are a subclassification of planet, it would be accurate to call Pluto a planet, in a general setting (bearing in mind, though, that there are 10+ other dwarf planets in our solar system, some larger than Pluto).

Pluto. Sometimes Pluto is closer to the Sun than Neptune.However, Pluto is not now classified as a planet.
Yes because Pluto is no longer in our solar system and the planets after Pluto are not in our solar system
No. Pluto orbits in our solar system.
Pluto was known as a planetuntil the year 2006 however scientists discoverednew objects and then classified it as a dwarf planet.

The old name of our star, which we sometimes call the "Sun" is "Sol". Sol has a number of planets, planetesimals, and rocks orbiting it. This is therefore called the "Sol"-ar system, or simply, the Solar System. Pluto is now classified as a "dwarf planet". Pluto may be a part of the Kuyper Belt at the far edge of our Solar System.

The sun is in front of the solar system and Pluto is at the far end of the Solar system.
The smallest terrestrial planet in the solar system is Mercury. The title was formerly held by Pluto, which is not classified as a planet.
Pluto is still in the solar system. They just changed its category from "planet" to "dwarf planet."
Planet Pluto is in solar system and Solar system is in the Universe t, hence Pluto is also in our universe.However Pluto was not part of original Solar sytem but was a comet which was captured in a planetary orbit.
