The asteroid belt is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. As such, the outer planets (or Jovian planets) can be said to be outside the asteroid belt. That is, they are located beyond the belt and are therefore further away from the sun than the belt.
Is the scientific name for asteroid asteroid?
No, the scientific name for asteroids is not "asteroid." Asteroids are typically named based on the order in which they were discovered, followed by a designation that reflects the specific characteristics of the asteroid, such as its orbit or composition.

What is located beyond the orbit of mars?
The Asteroid Belt is between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. "Asteroid" means "star-like object," and that is what they appear like when viewed through a telescope. But of course, they are not anything like stars. "Minor Planet" is the more appropriate alternate name, as they do orbit the sun, much like the other planets. They vary in size from a few meters to hundreds of kilometers. Ceres, the largest minor planet, and the first to be discovered (by Giuseppe Piazzi, in 1801), is spherical and 940 km in diameter. Smaller minor planets are irregular in shape. Here is a list of the 20 largest minor planets (The first number shows the order in which they were discovered)

Where in the solar system are most of the dwarf planets located?
Oh, dude, most of the dwarf planets in our solar system are hanging out in the Kuiper Belt, beyond Neptune. It's like this cool club where Pluto, Eris, Haumea, and Makemake are just chilling, not quite fitting in with the big planets but still doing their thing. So yeah, if you wanna hang out with the dwarf planets, head on over to the Kuiper Belt, it's the place to be.
Describe a asteroid belt?
The asteroid belt is the region of the Solar System located roughly between the orbits of the planets Mars and Jupiter. It is occupied by numerous irregularly shaped bodies called asteroids or minor planets. The asteroid belt region is also termed the main belt to distinguish it from other concentrations of minor planets within the Solar System, such as the Kuiper belt and scattered disc.
