What is bigger a planet or a star?
Stars are much bigger than planets. The only stars that are smaller than planets are neutron stars.
What effect do planets have on the stars they orbit?
The gravity of the star is usually many times larger than the planets due to the overwhelming mass of the star in comparison. The planets do have a gravitational pull of their own though, which has an effect on the star it is orbiting. It will cause the star to move slightly off centre as it pulls on the star during its orbit. The bigger the planet, the bigger the pull. By looking at distance stars, astronomers can see the effects of planets by observing a 'wobble' in the star as the unseen planets orbits it. They can then calculate the size of the planet and distance by the size and speed of the wobble.
