Pluto was believed to have shrank in diameter due to its demotion from the status of a planet to a dwarf planet in 2006. This reclassification was based on the criteria set by the International Astronomical Union, which led to Pluto being smaller and less gravitationally dominant than initially thought.
The planet that shrank in diameter is Mercury. Its diameter decreased as its core cooled and contracted, causing its surface to wrinkle and form scarps.
The largest planet in the solar system is Jupiter, with a diameter 11.209 times that of the Earth

No planet in the solar system has that diameter. The smallest planet, Mercury has a diameter of 4,879.4Km Have you mixed up diameter with radius? If so, Mars is the closest with a radius of 3,396.2km.

The planet Uranus.
To calculate the diameter of a planet, you can use the formula for the diameter based on the planet's radius: Diameter = 2 × Radius. If you have the planet’s circumference, you can also calculate the diameter using the formula: Diameter = Circumference / π (where π is approximately 3.14). Additionally, if you have access to images or data from space missions, you can use measurements of the planet's shadow or transit across a star to estimate its size.
The planet you are referring to is Jupiter, which has a diameter of approximately 86,881 miles. Mercury has a diameter of about 3,032 miles, Venus has a diameter of about 7,521 miles, Earth has a diameter of about 7,917 miles, and Mars has a diameter of about 4,212 miles.
Jupiter is the largest with the largest diameter.
the Jupiter diameter is 142,984km
"Shrank" is not an animal at all.
Uranus is third largest. Diameter = 51115km, about 8 times that of Earths diameter.
