Mercury is the smallest and is also the closest to the Sun. On its closest approaches to the Sun (every 88 days) the Sun's heat and light are 10 times more powerful on Mercury than on Earth.

Mercury!
Earth - The planet we live on.
Inertia is trying to pull the planet away from the sun and gravity is pulling the planet toward the sun so the both inertia and gravity steer the planet around the sun
Mercury
Yes, and at other times it is closer.When it is closest, the planet orbiting the Sun (or any other object, orbiting anything else) is said to be in periapsis; when it is furthest away, it is in apapsis or apoapsis.
It sounds like a planet to me.
The sun is not a planet. It is a star and it has planets including ours orbiting around it. There are an unimaginable number of stars like our sun out there that vary in size, age, and luminosity.
Mercury. There are many smaller bodies orbiting the Sun but they are not classed as planets.
Earth orbiting the sun is a planet that is attracted to a star.
The largest planet orbiting the sun is Jupiter.
The smallest planet is mercury, and the planet farthest from the sun is Neptune.

No, Earth is a planet orbiting the Sun.
Earth - The planet we live on.
A planet orbiting a star other than the Sun.An exoplanet is a planet orbiting any other star out there, except the Sun.
