Why do Jovian planets have a thicker atmosphere than the terrestrial planets?
Jovian planets do not have a solid surface, therefore their atmospheres are thick all the say to where their surface would be. Their atmospheres have more gasses than those surrounding terrestrial planets.
Which process explains why the terrestrial planets do not have hydrogen and helium in their atmospheres?
The terrestrial planets are less massive and therefore have less gravity. As a result, much of the lighter gases could escape, in the process of planet formation.
How are outer planets alike?
The outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) are all gas giants. That is, they are huge compared to Earth, and the consist mainly of gas. They don't have a surface on which you could stand.
Why are the gas giants far away from the sun and the terrestrial planets close?
Gas giants formed farther out from the Sun where it was cooler and there was more material available to build up their massive atmospheres. Terrestrial planets, like Earth and Mars, formed closer to the Sun where it was hotter, so only rocky material could condense into solid planets. This difference in formation location led to the varied compositions and characteristics of the planets in our solar system.
Does the star Capella have planets surrounding it?
It is a double or multiple star which could make planets less likely to be surrounding it.

How many planets are habital?
Other than Earth, no planets have been confirmed to be habitable. We do know of planets in other star systems upon which liquid water could theoretically exist but we can't measure the composition of the planets atmospheres therefore we can't know for certain whether or not they are habitable.
How would the chemicals of other planets atmosphere's react with those of earths?
The chemical reactions between Earth's atmosphere and the atmospheres of other planets would depend on the specific composition of each atmosphere. Interaction could lead to chemical changes, such as oxidation reactions or the formation of new compounds. However, without specific details on the atmospheres in question, it's difficult to predict the exact nature of the reactions.
What will be the sentence of thickest?
It is difficult to determine the "sentence of thickest" as this phrase does not have a standard meaning in English grammar or language. Could you provide more context or clarify the question?
Could powered flight be possible in the atmospheres of most of the planets in the solar system?
Powered flight is possible with no atmosphere at all, otherwise Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong would still be stuck on the moon.
Which of the following are the best candidates to search for planets that might harbor extraterrestrial life?
Planets located in the habitable zone of their star (where liquid water can exist), planets with rocky compositions, planets orbiting stable stars, and planets with atmospheres that could support life would be the best candidates to search for extraterrestrial life.
How could the inner planets be described?
The inner planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, are rocky terrestrial planets found closer to the Sun. They have solid surfaces, thin atmospheres, and are typically smaller in size compared to the outer gas giants. These planets have shorter orbital periods and are characterized by higher temperatures compared to the outer planets.
Could humans breathe on any other planet?
It would be difficult for humans to breathe on other planets as the atmospheres are very different from Earth's. For example, on Mars the atmosphere is mostly carbon dioxide with very little oxygen. Special equipment would be needed to survive on other planets.
What is the fraction of the relationship of the thinnest layer to the thickest layer?
The ratio of the thinnest layer to the thickest layer depends on the context. In a general sense, it could be any fraction from 0 to 1 (thinnest being 0 and thickest being 1).
Plants and animals cannot live on Saturn because?
After discovering non-carbon based life-forms at the deepest depths of our own planets' oceans, we are faced with the possibilty that life could exist on other planets even though they might or do possess atmospheres unsuited to the conventional carbon-based forms of life as we know them here on earth
What is the main reason you could not land on outer planets er planets?
The outer planets are gas planets
