Which planets are classified as inner planets and which are outer planets?

Very simple. We have 2 asteroid belts in our Solar System that divides the inner planets and outer planets. Very well organized and place you can tell with is the inner (closet to the sun) and which is outer (farther from the sun).


What are three ways that the inner planets are different from the putter planets?

The inner planets are rocky, with distinct solid surfaces, and dense, whereas the outer planets are gaseous, have no solid surface and are relatively light in comparison. The density of Saturn, for example, is less than that of water.


4 inner planets?

The four inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. These planets are referred to as terrestrial planets because they are rocky and similar in composition. They are also located closer to the sun compared to the outer planets.


What is different between inner and outer planets?

1-Outer Planets are much colder then inner planets. 2-They are all Gas Giants (they are incredibly huge). 3-ALL outer planets have rings (Pluto is a dwarf planet.And is alot farther away then Neptune) 4-There gravity is ALOT stronger then the inner planets. 5-Outer planets have shorter days then inner planets (i don't know why though).


What are the four inner planets of the solar system?

The four inner planets of the solar system are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. They are also known as the terrestrial planets because they are primarily composed of rock and metal. These planets are located closer to the sun compared to the outer gas giants.

How do the massive outer planets differ from the inner terrestrial planets?

The massive outer planets are composed mostly of gas and ice, while the inner terrestrial planets are made primarily of rock and metal. Outer planets are much larger in size and have thick atmospheres, while inner planets are smaller and have thin or no atmospheres. Outer planets also have many moons and rings, while inner planets have few or no moons.
