What does the sun's gravitational pull keep in orbit?
Planets, asteroids, meteors, comets, moons (which are also in orbit around their respective planets), dust particles, interplanetary gas.
Which celestial bodies orbit the Sun?
the asteroid belt, the kuiper belt, and the oort cloud.
'tiny planets' that orbit between mars and Jupiter?
Those aren't planets; they aren't big enough. We call them "asteroids".
What is the similarity between an asteroid and a planet?
Both asteroids and planets are objects that orbit the sun.
How many objects orbit the Sun?
Thousands inluding the 8 planets, the dwarf planets, the asteroids in the asteroid belt, and comets.
Do most asteroids orbit in the same direction as planets?
Yes asteroids orbit the sun counter-clockwise, just like all the planets
What do asteroids do around the sun and planets?
orbit
What does Pluto not have that planets do?
Pluto does not have an orbit clear of asteroids and debris. Planets do.
What does the sun's gravitational pull keep in orbit?
Planets, asteroids, meteors, comets, moons (which are also in orbit around their respective planets), dust particles, interplanetary gas.
What orbit the Sun like planets do?
Asteroids, Comets
What are the object that orbit the sun?
ASTEROIDS
Do moons and asteroids orbit the sun?
Asteroids orbit the sun. Moons orbit planets and planets orbit the sun. So you could say the moons orbit the sun. However, moons are kept in their orbits by the gravity of their planet and planets are kept in orbit by the gravity of the sun. So in that sense, moons do not orbit the sun.

Those aren't planets; they aren't big enough. We call them "asteroids".
What tiny planets orbit between Jupiter and mars?
Asteroids
What rocks orbit the sun?
Terrestrial planets and moons of both gaseous and terrestrial planets. Don't forget Dwarf planets and the asteroid belt.
Do asteroides orbit the same directions as the planets?
Yes asteroids orbit the sun counter-clockwise, just like all the planets
