In order to be considered a planet, Pluto would have to clear its orbital path of debris. Pluto is not large enough to do this, so it was reclassified as a dwarf planet.

What things would Pluto need to change to become a planet?
Well for pluto to be considored a planet it would need to… …straighten out its orbit because it intersects with Neptunes orbit …Become bigger …Be closer to the sun …Dominate its moon
What planet take the most time to orbit the sun?
Neptune. It would be Pluto, but Pluto is a dwarf planet ( a planet that was a planet, but decided that it wasn't a planet)
Is it cold or hot on the planet Pluto?
as the planet Pluto is considered the furthest planet from the sun, it would be a cold planet
What planet takes the most to orbit the sun?
Neptune. It would be Pluto, but Pluto is a dwarf planet ( a planet that was a planet, but decided that it wasn't a planet)
What is the fervest away planet?
the farthest planet away from our sun would be Pluto, but since Pluto is counted as a dwarf planet, Neptune would be the furvest planet away

Pluto.
Can Pluto become a planet again?
No. It is out of the question, as long as the current definition of planet prevails. In order to be a major planet (Pluto is a minor, or dwarf planet) it would have to clear a large area of the Kuiper Belt (the asteroid belt where Pluto spends most of its time) of any objects-- at least objects that are close to it in size and location. It's not likely that Pluto will ever do this. Pluto has that other oddity as well; it travels inside of Neptune's orbit for roughly 15 years out of every orbit. No other planet pair does this. There is no danger of Pluto crashing into Neptune, because Pluto and Neptune have an exact harmonic relationship. This includes the fact that for every 3 Neptunian orbits, Pluto makes 2. So some consider Pluto to be more like a moon of Neptune rather than a planet per se.
