What are large chunks of ice and dust whose orbits are usually very long narrow ellipses?
Comets.
Which planet is large body and orbits the sun?
All the planets are large bodies that orbit the sun.
How can you tell something is a planet and not a moon?
A planet is in direct orbit around a central star, while a moon is in orbit around a large body (a planet) rather than in a direct orbit around a star. The moon orbits the planet, while the planet orbits the sun.
What is a large spherical body that orbits a star?
Generally a planet.An object that orbits a star can be defined as a planet.
A large object that's orbits a planet is call a?
Anything that orbits a planet is called a satellite. There are 2 types: artificial (the ones we make take the old Sputnik for example) and natural (the Moon)
What is a large body of rock or gas that orbits a star?
A planet is a large body of rock or gas that orbits a star, such as the sun.
A large object that orbits a star is a?
Planet.
What are large chunks of ice and dust whose orbits are usually very long narrow ellipses?
Comets.
What planet is large body and orbits the sun?
The largest planet orbiting the sun is Jupiter.
Which planet is large body and orbits the sun?
All the planets are large bodies that orbit the sun.
What does it mean when your teacher asks what is a satellite on a planet?
any large object that orbits around the planet or AKA moon
How can you tell something is a planet and not a moon?
A planet is in direct orbit around a central star, while a moon is in orbit around a large body (a planet) rather than in a direct orbit around a star. The moon orbits the planet, while the planet orbits the sun.
A relatively large body that orbits a star?
We would call that body a "planet" of the star.
What is a large spherical body that orbits a star?
Generally a planet.An object that orbits a star can be defined as a planet.

Could Saturns rings be broken?
Saturn's rings are made up of loads of rocks, particles, dust and ice lumps that are all in independent orbits around the planet. They could be broken up, and have been, by some of the moons that are also in orbit around the planet. The gravitational effects of these moons can make the gaps between the rings. To be totally broken up, a very large object would have to come into play to upset the orbits of the ring material. Such an event would be very rare.
Are there any other moon's on Mars?
Mars is a planet. A moon is a large celestial object that orbits a planet. So no, there are no moons on mars.
