The atmosphere of the planet Venus is made mainly of carbon dioxide. This gas acts like the glass of a greenhouse, keeping the surface temperatures high enough to melt lead.

Venus.
Hard to say, as the distance from the star will also factor in, but in general, thin atmosphere would mean no insulation, it would be cold. Mars is a classic example of a planet having a thin atmosphere. It is extremely cold on Mars and has a small amount of carbon dioxide in it's atmosphere but is not in high enough concentration to warm the planet. Mercury has no atmosphere and it is hot and cold depending on which part of the planet is facing the Sun. Venus has a very dense amosphere and it is very hot, no matter which surface is facing the Sun.
Venus has an extremely dense atmosphere, with a surface pressure around 92 times that of Earth. In contrast, Mars has a very thin atmosphere, with surface pressure about 1/100th that of Earth.
False. Craters are not eroded on Mercury, which has no atmosphere.
The planet Mars has a very thin atmosphere, similar to the moon.
if we didn't have an atmosphere during the day our planet would be very hot and during the night our planet would be very cold
The outside layers of the atmosphere are very cold, as they get little heat from the Sun. The surface is unreachable beneath the hot, extremely dense lower atmosphere.
Probably not. Saturn is a gas giant planet, which means a very thick atmosphere above a surface which is entirely liquid. There may or may not be a solid core, but if there is it is deep below the surface.
Venus. It has a very think atmosphere that means its surface pressure is around 93 times that of Earths. Probes have landed on its surface, but due to the extreme pressure, temperatures and hostile atmosphere, they don't last for very long.
Venus has a very thick atmosphere composed mainly of carbon dioxide, which traps heat close to its surface through the greenhouse effect. This results in Venus having one of the hottest surface temperatures in our solar system, even hotter than Mercury, despite being farther from the Sun.
Venus is a solid surface planet, with a rocky terrain covered in thick clouds of mostly carbon dioxide and sulfuric acid. The dense atmosphere creates a greenhouse effect that results in extreme temperatures on the planet's surface.
