What is the inner and outer plants and contrast the two groups of planets?
The four inner, rocky planets are also known as the terrestrial planets. These are; Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The four outer gas giant planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The inner planets are smaller and have a higher average density. The outer planets are much larger, but have no real surface - just atmosphere that gets thicker as you travel inwards. The outer planets all have a ring system (the inner planets dont) while the outer planets have captured a lot more natural satellites or moons than the inner planets.
Is mars a inner planet?
Mars is an inner planet. The are 3 others: Mercury, Earth, and Venus. the outer planets and Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and Saturn. all of the outer planets and farthest from the sun and all have a ring around them.
What are the 3 features that the outer planets have in common?
These are the four outer gas giant planets; Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. They are all much larger than the inner planets, they all have a similar composition (gaseous atmospheres, mainly of Hydrogen and Helium) and they each have many moons and a ring system. None of the inner planets have a ring system and there are only three moons in total for the four inner planets (one for Earth and two in orbit around Mars).
What planet is an inner planet?
An inner planet is one of the ones that constitutes the inner part of our solar system. The ones we consider inner planets are those that are smaller and solid (as opposed to the massive, gaseous outer planets such as Jupiter and Saturn) and are surrounded by the ring formed by the zone of the asteroid belt. Those are considered inner planets include Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.
What are 3 ways inner planets are alike?
The four inner, rocky planets are also known as the terrestrial planets. These are; Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The inner planets all have a clear solid surface, unlike gaseous planets. The inner planets do not have a ring system. The inner planets are of similar densities.
Which inner planets have rings?
None of the four inner planets have inner rings, while each of the four outer gas planets have a ring system.
Which planets has rings the inner or outer?
Each of the four outer gas planets; Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune have a ring system, but Saturns rings are by far the most spectacular. None of the inner planets have a ring system.

Is Jupiter in the outer ring or the inner ring?
Jupiter is in the outer ring.

What are the planets with rings?
Each of the four outer gas giants have rings, while none of the inner planets have rings. The four outer gas planets are; Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Saturn has to most spectacular ring system.
what did you notice about the inner planet compared to the other planet?
The inner planets are small rocky bodies, whereas the outer planets are gas giants, large balls of gas with ring systems and a large quantity of Moons.
How many planets have a ring around it?
Each of the four outer gas planets has a ring system. These four outer planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
Is Saturns inner ring faster than the outer ring?
Yes, the inner ring is smaller so it goes faster
