Jovian planets are also know as the gas giants. There are four in our solar system. They are: Jupiter, Saturn Uranus and Neptune
Jupiter is both the largest Jovian or "inner" planet, and the largest planet in our entire solar system.
The closest Jovian planet, aka gas giant, is Jupiter. Jovian means relating to Jupiter.
Uranus is the planet out of the Jovian planets that does not have rings.
Terrestrial Planet: Also known as a rocky planet, its made from silicate rocks or materials. There are four Terrestrial Planets in The Solar System. Jovian Planet: Also known as a gas giant, they have high levels of methane and made composed of gases, some with huge storms such as the Red Spot on Jupiter.
Jupiter is the Jovian planet that is closest to the sun...
Yes. Also known as a Jovian planet
it is a Jovian planet. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are all Jovian, while Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are terrestrial planets.

Yes, it is a Jovian planet.
It's name is Jupiter. It is the largest planet in our solar system. It is a Gas Giant. It is also known as the Jovian Planet. Funny how you phrased " your 5th planet"
It seems there is no general consensus about the exact definition of "Jovian planets." Depending on the definition used, Neptune is, or is not, a "Jovian planet"; as explained on Wikipedia: "Giant planets are also sometimes called jovian planets, after Jupiter. They are also sometimes known as gas giants. However, many astronomers apply the latter term only to Jupiter and Saturn, classifying Uranus and Neptune, which have different compositions, as ice giants. ..."
Mercury is a planet that cannot be strictly classified as either a terrestrial or a jovian planet. It is a terrestrial planet due to its rocky composition, but it also exhibits characteristics of a jovian planet, such as a lack of atmosphere and presence of a weak magnetic field.
In our Solar System, ALL Jovian planets have moons.
Ceres is a dwarf planet located in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, which is not classified as terrestrial or jovian. Eris is a dwarf planet that is further out in the Kuiper Belt and is also not classified as terrestrial or jovian. Both Ceres and Eris are part of the category known as dwarf planets.
The closest Jovian planet, aka gas giant, is Jupiter. Jovian means relating to Jupiter.
Jupiter is a Jovian planet. The word "Jovian" comes from "Jove," which is another name for Jupiter.
Pluto is the only "planet" that isn't a planet. Well I think that the IAU still have not answered the question WHAT MAKES A PLANET A PLANET? Is it a certain size or something? Comment : The IAU have defined a planet. The definition is mainly about size, but it's not simple: 1) The object must be big enough for gravity to have formed it into a (roughly) spherical shape. 2) The object must be by far the largest object in the neighbourhood of its orbit. Pluto qualifies on 1) but fails on 2). Also, Venus and Mercury are sometimes called "morning stars" or "evening stars", but they are planets.
