What two planets rotate with small axis tilts and in the same direction that they orbit the Sun?
Mercury and Jupiter.
What are the small planets with orbits between mars and Jupiter?
Asteroids
What belt separates the inner planets?
The asteroid belt, which consists of millions of individual asteroids of varying sizes - from a speck of dust to hundreds of kilometres in diameter - is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It therefore separates the inner (or rocky) planets from outer (or gas giant) planets.
What separates the the inner and outer planets?
The asteroid belt separates the inner and outer planets [See related question], however, the ice or frost line [See related question} is the crucial reason for the differences in structure and composition.
What is largest of the small bodies that are found in the solar system?
If by small bodies you mean planets, then Jupiter is the answer you want. If you mean dwarf planets, then you are looking for Ceres in the asteroid belt between Jupiter and Mars.
What can be thought of as the dividing line between the inner planets and outter planets?
Between the orbit of Mars and Jupiter, there is the asteroid belt. This is made up of millions of small rocks that are in a direct orbit around the sun.
What are small planetlike fragments that lies between the inner planets and outer planets?
You may be referring to asteroids, which are small rocky or icy bodies which orbit the Sun. There are many thousands of asteroids, most of which orbit between Mars and Jupiter. Most of the asteroids are too small to see, but a few of the larger ones are visible without a telescope.

What is one difference of dwarf planets and asteroids?
asteroids are small chunks of rock which move in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter while dwarf planets like Pluto have a centrifugal force and orbit the sun.

Small planets with orbits between mars and jupiter?
Between the orbit of Mars and Jupiter, there is the asteroid belt. This is made up of millions of small rocks that are in a direct orbit around the sun. Most of these objects are boulder sized or smaller, but some are quite large. The largest is a Dwarf planet called Ceres, which is around 975km in diameter. Its the only one in the asteroid belt called a dwarf planet as it it big enough, and has enough gravity to make itself into a spherical shape.
What is the small rocky and metallic bodies between orbit Jupiter and mars?
asteroids
Tiny planets that orbit Mars and Jupiter?
Objects that orbit a planet are called moons or satellites, they are not planets. Both Mars and Jupiter have moons; Jupiter has a lot more than Mars does, and some of them are quite large, too. The two moons of Mars, Phobos and Deimos, are relatively small, perhaps even tiny.
