Mercury. At the equator, the surface temperature on Mercury can range from -173°C to 430°C, while temperatures at the poles can plummet to around -193°C. The large temperature range is due to a very long apparent day length, from a combination of the time taken to orbit and the planets axial rotation. Its lack of atmosphere also means that it cannot retain atmospheric heat like the other planets.

Which planet experiences the most extremes of surface temperature?
Mercury has the most extreme surface temperature heat wise. Pluto has the most surface temperature coolness wise.
What planet has the most fluctuating surface temperature in the solar system?
Jamaica
What is endothermic use in a sentence?
Endothermic means a temperature under a surface and is used in a number of instances, most notably medicine where it is used to describe a temperature under the skin, and geology where it can be used to describe the temperature under the suface of a planet, therefore a use of endothermic in a sentence could be;"The endothermic temperature of the planet was greater than that of it's surface."
What is the surface temperature of a red giant?
The surface temperature of a red giant is, at most, 5000 Kelvin.
Which planet has most of its surface covered by water?
earth
What planet has the most earth like surface?
Mars
Is English important?
Yes, because it is the most widely spoken language on the planet.
What planet has the highest surface gravity of all the terrestrial planets?
Earth is the most massive terrestrial planet, so it has the highest surface gravity.
Which planet has a cratered surface similar to Earths moon?
The planet Mercury has the most similar cratered surface compared to the moon.
What is the temperature rang on Jupiter?
Temperature Range on JupiterThe temperature at the top of Jupiter's clouds is approximately -230oF (-145oC). The temperature increases as you move downward through the clouds, and reaches 70oF (21oC) at the point in the atmosphere where its atmospheric pressure is about 10 times that of earth's. Near the core of Jupiter the temperature may reach 43,000oF (24,000oC), which is hotter than the surface of the sun.Sources do not agree on what exactly the surface temperature of Jupiter is, perhaps because it is a gaseous planet that has no surface as we think of them. Most agree that the temperature is well under -100oF, and closer to -150oF at what is considered to be the surface.
Which inner planet could humans visit most easily?
Out of the four inner planets, Mars would be the one that would be visited most easily. Although Venus comes closer to our planet, it has a crushing surface temperature of 93 bar, 93 times that of Earths. It also has the highest surface temperature of all planets. You would need a pressure suit and breathing gear for Mars, but the conditions would be far less hostile.
Is sedimentary rock the most common rock on planet surface?
yes
