What are the reason Pluto is considered adwarf planet?
Well because it's tiny compared to the other planets (dwarf) and its far away from the sun.
Why are Jupiter and Saturn and Uranus and Neptune are call gaseous planets?
The reason they call it that is because they're bascially gigantic balls compared to our earth and the ther 3 rocky inner planets and they also have outer layer of gases making them all gaseous planets.
What is the name of the sixteenth century monk that was burned at the stake for believing there is life on other planets?
Most likely a witch, hence the reason it was burned!
The reason that small planets tend to lose interior heat faster than larger planets is essentially the same as the reason that?
a large baked potato takes longer to cool than a small baked potato
What is the reason that planets stay in orbit?
The gravitational pull from the sun. God put them there.

What is the main reason you could not land on outer planets er planets?
The outer planets are gas planets

The sun is a source of what?
Heat for all the planets and the main reason for the orbits of the planets.
The reason that most extrasolar planets are found close to their parent stars?
The reason that most extrasolar planets are found close to their parent stars is that the amount and frequency of the star's motion are both higher in these planets.
What are the planets for?
there isn't actually a reason for "what are planets for" but they might be for life forms. planets are not for anything really, they just got made by gravity.
Why are the 4 planets called terrestrial planets?
They are called the terrestrial planets because they are similar to Earth (in fact one of them is Earth.
How does the makeup of the planets change once you pass the asteroid belt?
Beyond the asteroid belt, the planets are massive gas giants. The reason for this is that they have retained most of their hydrogen and helium, which the inner planets did not. Had they formed closer to the Sun, they might have become rocky and terrestrial as well. The icy dwarf planets beyond Neptune would likely not survive if they were warmer : most of their mass is frozen gases.
Why do the planets appear shiny from space?
Other planets appear shiny from Earth for the same reason the moon does, we see the other planets' reflected sunlight.
Gravity is the reason that the planets stay in orbit around the sun?
It is half the reason, at least. Gravity is the force pulling the planets towards the sun, but they also have a velocity working perpendicular to it. With the velocity alone, the planets would fly off into space. With gravity alone, the planets would be pulled into the sun.
Who proposed the reason that planets orbit the sun?
i think ptolemy
