Jupiter and Saturn are called gas giants. They are composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, with some water in various physical states. Uranus and Neptune are called ice giants. They are composed of heavier elements and less helium and hydrogen than the gas giants.
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are often referred to as gas giants. They are composed mostly of hydrogen and helium, with no solid surface. These planets are also much larger in size compared to the terrestrial planets like Earth and Mars.
No, they do not. Uranus and Neptune are now considered Ice Giants.
The question is not well-defined enough to answer. One common division is between "terrestrial" (rocky) planets and "jovian" (gas giant) planets. Some people make a distinction between "gas giants" (Jupiter and Neptune) and "ice giants" (Uranus and Neptune).
The solar system consists of the sun, eight planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune), their moons, asteroids, comets, and other smaller objects. These celestial bodies are bound together by gravitational forces and orbit around the sun.
The planets in our solar system are categorized into two main types: terrestrial planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars) which are rocky and relatively small, and gas giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) which are composed mostly of gases and have thick atmospheres. Additionally, there is a category of dwarf planets, such as Pluto and Eris, which don't meet all the criteria to be considered full-fledged planets.
The two types are Terrestrial and Jovian (However there are now three)GAS: Gases make up almost the entire planet. its only terrain would be a tiny ball no bigger than the earth's moon in its center. examples of this would be Jupiter and Saturn.ICE: Ices make up the majority of the planet. Uranus and Neptune.Terrestrial - opposite of gaseous, the planet has a solid surface, and a thin atmosphere where its gases reside. examples of this would be Mercury, Venus, Earth and MarsNOTE: Older texts and teachers still refer to Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune as Gas Giants. This has been changed since the Voyager flypast.
The inner planets, also known as terrestrial planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars), are smaller, rockier, and have solid surfaces. The outer planets, also called gas giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune), are larger, primarily made of gas, and have no solid surface. Both sets of planets orbit the Sun, but inner planets are closer to the Sun and have shorter orbital periods, while outer planets are farther away and have longer orbital periods.
The outer planets, including Jupiter, by Jove, are all gas giants. They may have a rocky core deep, deep down, but they are mostly composed of different kinds of gasses.
Rocky planets and gaseous planets.
No. It is a gas giant, so it does not have a surface like the terrestial planets, such as Earth, have. So it doesn't have those kinds of physical characteristics like caves, valleys, mountains, deserts etc.
ice water
Neptune is made out of all kinds of gases it to one big thing so i hope that answers your question
