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.

Explain how the inner planets are different from the outer planets?
The inner planets, also called terrestrial planets, are closer to the Sun and have solid surfaces, while the outer planets, known as gas giants, are farther from the Sun and composed mostly of gas. Inner planets are smaller and have higher densities, while outer planets are much larger and have lower densities. Additionally, inner planets have few or no moons, while outer planets have numerous moons.
Another name for the inner planets?
The outer planets are also called Jovian planets or gas giants. These planets include Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. These outer planets are gaseous with no solid surfaces and only liquid cores.
How many types of planets are in space?
There are 7 main classification of Planets. They are classified into the following groups; * Inferior Planets * Superior Planets * Inner Planets * Outer Planets * Terrestial Planets, * Jovian Planets * Gas Giants
What separates the terrestrial planets from the gas giants?
One key difference is their composition: terrestrial planets are mainly made of rock and metal, while gas giants are mostly composed of hydrogen and helium. Gas giants are also much larger in size and have thick atmospheres, while terrestrial planets have solid surfaces. Additionally, gas giants are typically located farther from the Sun in the outer regions of a solar system.
Are inner planets known as Terrestrial planets?
Yes, inner planets are known as terrestrial planets because they are rocky in nature and have solid surfaces. The inner planets include Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, all of which have similar characteristics compared to the outer gas giants.
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.
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.

What family does Uranus belong to in the outer giants?
it doesn't have a single family out of the terrestrial planets or the gas giants
What are two ways that the eight planets can be classified?
They can be classed as terrestrial planets or gas giants, or inner and outer.
What is the difference between terrestial planets and outer planets?
terrestrial are planets that are the inner planets since there are made up of rock. but on the other hand. the outer planets are the gas giants. or the outer planets. they are made up of various gasses.
How are the four outer planets alike?
The four outer planets are all of the type astronomers call "gas giants", and have no hard, rocky surface per se. The inner planets are all solid rocky "terrestrial" planets. Also, the four outer planets are larger in size and lesser in density than the inner planets.

What are the two planet groups?
There are the inner, terrestrial planets, also know as the rocky planets. Earth is one of these. Then there are the outer planets, also know as the gas planets or gas giants.
Why do the inner planets have fewer moons?
The inner planets have fewer moons because they formed closer to the Sun where the gravitational pull was strong enough to prevent significant amounts of material from coalescing into moons. Additionally, the inner planets' gravity is not strong enough to capture passing objects as moons like the gas giants, which are located farther out in the solar system.
