Which gas giants have more moons than the terrestrial planets?
All of our Solar Systems gas giants have more moons than the terrestrial planets. Jupiter (63), Saturn (62), Uranus (27) and Neptune (13).
Does the terrestrial planets have more moons than the outer planets?
Oh no, it is the outer planets which have the most moons. Terrestrial planets such as Earth have relatively few moons.
Are planets more likely to be gas giants or terrestrial planets?
Bigger planets are more likely to be gas giants while smaller ones are more likely to be terrestrial. This of course is not the answer to your question which is, of all planets that may exist, is there a greater likelyhood of there being terrestrial planets or gas giants?
Does the outer planet have more moons than outer planet?
Oh no, it is the outer planets which have the most moons. Terrestrial planets such as Earth have relatively few moons.
Does the mass of a planets seem to effect how many moons it has?
Yes. The massive giant planets have far more moons than the less massive terrestrial planets.
Why do gas giants have more moons the terrestrial planets?
They are larger and so they have more gravity.
Why do the giants have more moons than the terrestrial planets?
They are larger and so they have more gravity.

Why do these gas giants have more moons than the terrestrial planets?
They are larger and so they have more gravity.
Why do the gas giants have more moons than the terrestrial planets?
They are larger and so they have more gravity.
Do terrestrial planets have more moons than the outer gas giants?
Terrestrial means on Earth so Earth is the only terrestrial planet This is incorrect, the first 4 planets are terrestrial as they are solidly bound planets. Pluto was also a terrestrial dwarf planet. Any planet can have moons but due to the gas giants having larger gravitational forces they have traditionally gathered more moons. Thusly, no.
Gas giants have many more moons than terrestrial planets due to having higher?
gravity
Does the terrestrial planets have more moons than the outer planets?
Oh no, it is the outer planets which have the most moons. Terrestrial planets such as Earth have relatively few moons.
Gas giants have many more moons than terrestrial planets due to have higher?
Gas giants have a higher mass. This means that the gas giants have a more gravity to hold moons in orbit around them.
Which gas giants have more moons than there are terrestrial planets?
Jupiter (63), Saturn(62) , Uranus(27) and Neptune(13).
What set of planets have more moons terrestrial or gas?
gas planets
