They are both gaseous, they both have spots, and they both have fierce surface "winds".

Why is the temperature on the surface of Jupiter much lower than that on earth?
The "Surface" of Jupiter is hard to define as it is a gas giant but the top of the atmosphere (however you want ti define that) is cold due to heat radiating into space. Jupiter is so much farther from the Sun than Earth is, the Sun cannot heat Jupiter's atmosphere. And the heat form the interior (it is actually hotter than the surface of the Sun deep inside Jupiter!) dissipates into space.
Is Jupiter bigger than the Sun?
Jupiter is 10 times smaller than the Sun and it is 1/1000 the mass of the sun.
Is the gravitational force between the sun and Jupiter or between the sun and Saturn?
Sun and Jupiter because Jupiter has more mass and it is closer to the sun.
What is the most common state of the sun's surface?
Gas
Which solar feature is shaped like an arch?
A solar flare arches up from the surface of the sun.
What feature makes Jupiter different from earth?
The distance from the sun.
What is hotter than Jupiter's surface?
Jupiter's surface is hotter than absolute zero, 0 Kelvin.

What is the surface temperature on Jupiter?
Jupiter is a very cold planet. It has an average surface temperature of around -234 degrees Fahrenheit. Jupiter's temperature depends on the temperature on the inside of the planet, not by its distance from the sun.
How hot is the surface of Jupiter?
I don't know but the core of Jupiter can get hotter than the sun at 36 thousand degrees C!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What do Pluto and Jupiter have in common?
They are farther from the sun than the Earth is.
Who live at Jupiter?
nobody the surface of Jupiter can get five times hotter than the sun so it would be too hot for man t live on Jupiter
Why is the surface of Jupiter colder than the surface of earth?
Saturn's surface is a lot farther from the Sun than the surface of Earth is.
How come moons orbit Jupiter even though sun have greater gravitational pull?
If you compare surface gravity, yes the sun's gravity is stronger than that of Jupiter. But gravity decreases in strength as you get farther from the object. Jupiter's moons are close enough to Jupiter and far enough from the sun that Jupiter's gravity has more influence.
What is a small icy object that orbits the sun between the orbits of mars and Jupiter?
Its the suns surface
Does Jupiter go around the sun or the sun goes around Jupiter?
Jupiter goes around the sun
Is Jupiter bigger than the Sun?
Jupiter is 10 times smaller than the Sun and it is 1/1000 the mass of the sun.
