What are some similarities of the inner and outer planets?
Inner and outer planets have some things that are in common but there mostly way different. For instants they both orbit the sun. On the other hand the outer planets are made mostly by gas, that's why they are called the gas giants. The inner planets are mostly made by rock and dust. The inner planets are called Terrestrial planets and the outer planets are called Jovian planets. The inner planets are closer to the sun, have more density, they have less moons, there about the size of Earth, and they rotate slowly. The outer planets (Jovian Planets) are farther from the sun, they have less density, they have more moons, they are large, about the size of Jupiter, they rotate rapidly, and they have more mass. These planets are alike because they both orbit the sun.
What do the outer planets have that the inner planets do not have?
outer planets are gas giants whille inner planets are just rocky planets. that includes that outer planets have significant amount of mass than the inner planets
Which of the inner planets have the greatest mass?
Earth
What two planets are most alike?
Venus and Earth are the two planets that are most alike in terms of size and composition. They are similar in mass, density, and have a similar rocky composition. However, Venus has a harsh environment with extreme temperatures and a thick, toxic atmosphere, unlike Earth.
How are the inner and outer planets different?
There are a lot of differences between the inner and outer planets. First of all, they inner planets are also known as the "Rocky planets". THey are rocky, hence their name "Rocky planets". And the outer planets are also known as "Gas Giants." THey are mainly composed of gas, hence their name, "Gas Giants." Another difference is their mass. The outer planets have greater mass than the inner planets. In other words, they are heavier.The inner planets follow orbital paths which, like those of the outer planets,are centered on the sun. But the inner planets, without exception, are nearerto the sun than any of the outer planets are.

What do the outer planets have that the inner planets do not have?
outer planets are gas giants whille inner planets are just rocky planets. that includes that outer planets have significant amount of mass than the inner planets
Which planets have density?
All of them. Anything with mass has density.
What is a inner planer?
An inner planet is mostly made of iron and has more mass than outer planets, outer planets are mostly made of gasses, makeing them have less mass. The inner planets are the planets between the asteroid belt and the sun
Which of the inner planets have the greatest mass?
Earth
What inner planet has great mass?
Jupiter has great mass, but it's not an inner planet. Earth has most mass of the inner planets, but far less than Jupiter.
What is the difference between terrestrial planet and gas giant?
Each of the four inner planets have a clearly defined terrain. They are different to the gas planets, which don't have a clear solid surface. The inner planets are also much smaller and less massive, yet have a higher density than the outer planets. The inner planets have fewr moons due to their smaller mass and size. As they are closer to the sun, they orbit the sun in less time and are also warmer.
What two planets are most alike?
Venus and Earth are the two planets that are most alike in terms of size and composition. They are similar in mass, density, and have a similar rocky composition. However, Venus has a harsh environment with extreme temperatures and a thick, toxic atmosphere, unlike Earth.
Are dwarf planets smaller than inner planets?
Yes, all of the dwarf planets are smaller than the smallest inner planet (Mercury).
Why can't you determine the size of the planets?
But you CAN determine the size of the planets: in diameter, overall mass, and in density.
What are the main characteristics of outer planets?
The four outer planets - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune - are gas giants. Compared to the four inner planets:* They are much larger. * They have a much larger mass. * They consist mainly of gas. No surface where you could stand on. * The have a fairly low density.
Is earth the largest of all inner planets?
Yes, Earth is the largest of all inner planets in our solar system. The inner planets, also known as terrestrial planets, include Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, and Earth is the largest in terms of both size and mass.
