Just one per year. That's why they're called "annual rings". Scientists use Dendrochronology to date trees and can usually tell within a calender year, depending on the age of the tree.

It depends on the year - if there are more than one growing season for some reason, there can be more than one ring per year. Rings show growth, not time.

Does Jupiter have more rings than Saturn?

Yes, Saturn has many more rings than Jupiter. Jupiter only has 4 rings. Saturn's rings, however, have not bee officially counted. There are seven groups of rings. There are four main groups and three fainter groups. Inside every group there is an unknown number of rings orbiting the planet. There are many theories of the number of Saturn's rings, ranging from 30 to under 1,000.
