The answer is the asteroid belt.
Mars is considered a terrestrial planet because it is rocky and mostly composed of silicate minerals and metals. Jovian planets, on the other hand, are gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn, which primarily consist of hydrogen and helium.
Dependant on how the debris from supernovae is moving, the proportions of certain materials present, and the initial conditions of solar systems forming different combinations of terrestrial and Jovian planets are formed. Terrestrial planets are comprised of heavier particles (ie. of higher relative atomic mass) meaning they have stronger gravity which leads to higher density planets than the gaseous Jovian planets. A Jovian planet can be thought of as a failed star - it has all the elements needed to fuel nuclear fusion, but not enough gravity to attain the nuclear activation energy required. So the Sun started as a large cloud mostly comprising of gases, and terrestrial planets were formed from clouds mostly consisting of heavy solids.
That could be one of the "terrestrial" planets, but most likely the required answer is "asteroid".
To qualify as a planet, a body has to be approximately spherical (achieving hydrostatic equilibrium under its own gravity), it has to orbit the sun directly and it has to have cleared its orbit of all other objects - so that at that distance from the sun, there are no other sizable bodies.
Yes, Mars is terrestrial in the sense that it is a rocky planet like Earth, as opposed to a gas giant like Jupiter or Saturn. However, Mars is also known as an "inferior planet" because its orbit is closer to the Sun than Earth's.

These are called the "terrestrial planets" or "inner planets". They are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.
The planet Jupiter is at the center of the Jovian system.

Terrestrial planets move faster in their orbits because they are closer to the Sun. Isaac Newton, who discovered the effects of gravity, stated that gravity gets stronger the closer you get to a large, massive body (like the Sun) - and this makes the planets orbit faster than the outer planets, where the force of the Sun's gravity is less. Their orbits are also smaller, so it takes less time for them to go around the Sun.
Terrestrial geology is the scientific study of the composition, structure, processes, and history of Earth's solid surface, including rocks, minerals, soils, and landforms. It involves investigating the physical and chemical properties of Earth's terrestrial environments to understand the planet's geological evolution and dynamics. Terrestrial geology plays a crucial role in areas such as natural resource management, environmental protection, and hazard mitigation.
The sagittal plane separates the body into left and right halves.
The body of water that separates Europe and North Africa is the Mediterranean Sea.
well all the body planes separate the body into two planes. the frontal plane separates it into anterior(front) and posterior(back) sagital separates medial and lateral, transverse superior and inferior.
