What are 3 distinctive characteristics of orbit of planet and moon in the solar system?
1). They orbit in the same around the sun, and as the sun. 2). Orbits of planets and their larger moons are in just about the same plane. 3). Almost all planets and moons rotate on their axes in the same direction as the planets orbit the sun.
What is the planet named Venus'?
The planet Venus is the 2nd planet from the Sun and was discovered by Galileo. Its atmosphere contains mostly of carbon dioxide (co2) about 94%. Its nickname is "Earth's Sister Planet" because of its physical characteristics. Along with Mercury, Earth, and Mars (the other 3 inner planets) it is a terrestrial planet and the outer planets are called Jovian planets. There are many differences between these two types of planets, but that's a different question that is off topic of Venus!!!
What are the three characteristics of a planet?
The three qualifications for a planet are: 1. It orbits the parent star. 2. It has hydrostatic equilibrium (roughly spherical shape) caused by the gravitational forces. 3. It has cleared its path of orbital debris. (This one is hotly contested.)
What are the 3 features that the outer planets have in common?
These are the four outer gas giant planets; Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. They are all much larger than the inner planets, they all have a similar composition (gaseous atmospheres, mainly of Hydrogen and Helium) and they each have many moons and a ring system. None of the inner planets have a ring system and there are only three moons in total for the four inner planets (one for Earth and two in orbit around Mars).
What does the moon and earth have in common?
1. They are both round 2. They are both planets 3. They both orbit something
List 3 common media characteristics?
Three common media characteristics are audience, time lag, and ownership.
What gases do Jovian planets contain?
The Jovian planets, or "Gas Giants" are not all comprised of the same gases. The Traditional Jovian planets, Jupiter and Saturn, contain mostly hydrogen and helium with other heavy elements making about 3 to 10 percent of its mass. The structure contains an outer layer of molecular hydrogen, over a layer of "metallic" hydrogen that can actually conduct electricity due to the immense pressure it's under. Uranus and Neptune are considered a subclass of Gas Giants called "Ice Giants", because they are made up primarily by water, ammonia, and methane, along with a bit of hydrogen and helium in it's outer atmosphere. The hydrogen and the iced water, ammonia, and methane of these planets are what gives the Ice Giants their rich aquamarine and baby blue color.
What are 3 special characteristics of the three outer planets?
The inner and outer planets are The same because The Inner planets are not made out of gas The outer planets are bigger than inners The outer planets are the coldest The Inner planets are rocky The inner planets are terrestrial The outer planets can't support life The inner planets have iron cores The outer are the furthest from the sun The outer planets haveno rocky surface
What plants have rings?
Trees show growth rings on the cross-section of their trunks.
Mars is an inner planet so what are some of its characteristics?
Mars, like the other Inner Planets, is characterized by having a solid, rocky surface. Other characteristics which it has in common with inner planets Venus and Earth is the fact that it has an atmosphere; something which Mercury lacks. Its atmosphere is largely characterized by large amounts of Carbon Dioxide (95%), with smaller amounts of Nitrogen (3%), Argon (1.6%), and has trace amounts of oxygen and water.

How is Saturn and uranus similar?
1. Both gas giants 2. they are Jovian planets 3. Both have rings 4. Are both outer plants
What are four characteristics that all languages have in common?
All languages have a system of sounds to convey meaning (phonology), a system of grammar to structure sentences (syntax), a way to express concepts and ideas (lexicon), and the ability to communicate using both verbal and nonverbal cues.
