According to the International Astronomical Union we have eight major planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune; and five dwarf planets: Ceres, Pluto, Haumea, Makemake and Eris. The IAU left it a bit ambiguous as to whether dwarf planets count as real planets or not. If you count the dwarf planets as planets, then yes, there are indeed thirteen - if you don't count them, then no, there are only eight. However, just because the IAU only lists 13 planets doesn't mean there are only 13. For an object to count as a dwarf planet it must be massive enough for its gravity to pull it into a rounded shape - and most dwarf planets lie very far out in the solar system, in a zone of icy, distant small objects called the Kuiper Belt, so they only appear in our telescopes as points of light. We have confirmed at least 13 objects orbiting our Sun are round, but there may be dozens more. Some astronomers believe there may be as many as a hundred dwarf planets in the Kuiper Belt, so perhaps in the future the choice will be between eight and a hundred rather than eight and thirteen!If you don't count dwarf planets, the eight planets in order from the Sun are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. You can remember them with a mnemonic like My Very Eager Mother Just Served Us Noodles. And you can remember the five dwarfs in their proper order with Counting Planets Here Means Eight.If you count dwarf planets, then the thirteen planets in order from the Sun are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Ceres (in the asteroid belt), Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto (in the Kuiper Belt), Haumea (KB), Makemake (KB) and Eris (KB). You can use this mnemonic: My Very Easy Method Can't Just Speed Up Naming Planets, However Many Exist!
Subject: The Sun Predicate: is much bigger than all the other planets.
Jupiter has more mass than all the other planets in our solar system combined. It is the largest planet and contains more than twice the mass of all the other planets put together.
Jupiter has more mass than all the other planets in our solar system combined. It is a gas giant and its mass is about 2.5 times more than the combined mass of all the other planets.
Neptune has a surface more similar to the inner planets than to the other outer planets. It is primarily composed of rock and ice, similar to the composition of the inner planets, whereas the other outer planets are predominantly gas giants.
Jupiter is the largest planet, its volume is greater than all of the other planets combined.
Yes.
Closer than the other planets in our Solar System? No - only Neptune is farther away, the other planets are closer to the SuUn than Uranus.Closer than the other planets in our Solar System? No - only Neptune is farther away, the other planets are closer to the SuUn than Uranus.Closer than the other planets in our Solar System?

It is a dwarf planet. It is smaller than the other planets.
there 9 planets one is moved
well some planets are bigger than the earth but from the inside earth is of course bigger than all of the other planets
No, there is no oxygen on any other planet other than Earth because there is no planet life on the other planets.
the sun is bigger than any other planets because millions of years ago meteorites smashed together to make the sun and to any other planets that did not happen
Uranus is tilted on it's side other than the other planets.
Subject: The Sun Predicate: is much bigger than all the other planets.
No, in fact many planets are hotter than it. the warmest is Venus and then Mercury.
Earth, Venus, and Mercury are also inner planets.
Pluto's orbit is longer and slower than other planets.
