No it is too small to be a planet so it is a planetoid.
From scientist bob Jones
No scientists say that. Scientists know that Pluto is a dwarf planet, and not one of the 8 major planets of our solar system.
Yes.
Pluto is a dwarf planet because scientists say Pluto is too small to be a planet anymore. Pluto is a DWARF PLANET.
Pluto is the planet that scientist are saying is not a planet. Scientists are not saying any particular planet is not a planet. Simply that Pluto has been reclassified as a dwarf planet.
Mars is not the smallest planet because Pluto is. Though, scientists now say that Pluto is no longer a true planet. That makes Mercury the smallest planet in our Solar System.
Scientists say that Pluto is not a planet because, like Ceres in the asteroid belt, it has failed to clear its neighborhood of planetesimals and other debris.

It didn't. It's still there, orbiting just past Neptune. It did get its category changed from "planet" to "dwarf planet" but that's just our words, nothing happened to Pluto itself.
Pluto is not a planet. It is is a dwarf planet, it was once a plant but sciencetist now say it isnt a plant
Pluto did not disappear, but rather was reclassified from a planet to a dwarf planet in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union. This decision was made based on new guidelines that defined a planet as having cleared its orbit of other debris, a criteria which Pluto did not meet.
Well, darling, Pluto is now considered a piece of leftover rock from the formation of the solar system. So, forget about it being a planet, it's just a tiny chunk of debris floating around out there. But hey, it's still special in its own little way, just like that weird cousin you only see at family gatherings.
None. Old textbooks would say that it is Pluto, but Pluto is no longer considered a planet.
