A planet orbits a star in a regular manner. The sum of a star and it's orbiting planets is called a Solar System.
Stars are always much bigger than planets. Also, their content is different. stars are made of mostly hydrogen, which they push together to form helium. this is then pushed together to form other elements which are blown into space. (although one star nicknamed Lucy has got alot of carbon in its core, which because of the pressure has formed a diamond which is a billion billion carats.) planets are different. although they may be made of gas, like Jupiter, they are different gases to the ones in stars. also, it is actually very unlikely that it is made from gases. it is usually molten iron and rock.
A star is a burning mass of (mainly) hydrogen and helium. The outer planets are also made out of hydrogen and helium. Neptune and Uranus theirs also have methane,hydrogen, and helium in it that's why both planets are blue.
A planet is a body which moves in an orbit around a star.
A planet (of any sort, dwarf or other) is defined as "any celestial body which orbits a star." The earth is a planet.
A star is typically a big, burning, ball of gas around which planets tend to orbit. (except when it goes out, then it is a black hole or a neutron star.) The sun is a star.
Fun fact: The only place gold comes from is supernovas. All gold is made in supernovas.
A star is massive ball of fire and luminous sphere of plasma held together by gravity . a star emits its own light and energy and in our earth, sun ( a star ) is the main source of energy .
A planet is the celestial body orbiting a star or any other stellar remnant which is massive enough to be rounded by its own gravity . Planets can't emit their own light and energy .

A star generates its own heat and light and is generally much more massive than a planet which only orbits round a star and reflects its light.
Stars undergo nuclear reactions that burn hydrogen in their cores. Planets don't do this. Stars are actually big balls of gas, like the sun.
A star is self luminous.
A planet revolves around a star, and is bigger in mass than the planetoid Pluto; that is, nearly the mass of Mercury or larger. A satellite revolves around a planet, and is smaller than the planet.
The Sun is a yellow, main sequence star.
Universe -> galaxy -> star -> planet
star is a huge mass of gas, where as earth is a planet
A planet is any collection of rock or gas that has enough gravity to pull itself into a spherical shape. A star is hundreds or thousands of times more massive than any given planet, and is a ball of plasma with nuclear fusion occuring at the core
Our Earth is an example of a planet, whilst our Sun is an example of a star.
The sun is a star and the gas planet is a planet.
What is the milky way
The planet reflects solar light and a star has its own light.
Basically, Earth is a planet, the Sun is a star, and a comet is an icy small body of ice.
a star is a dying planet and a planet is a living star
a star is way bigger than a planet. you need a telescope to see some of the planets.a star twinkles.a planet glows.
A planet is a ruffly spherical object that orbits a star. The difference between a planet and a dwarf planet is a planet clears its orbit of debris by itself- a dwarf planet has help! Hope this helps!xxx :-)
Earth is a Planet. Moon is a satalite. Sun is a meduim sized star.
No. The link is between the planet's distance from its star and the period of its orbit.
i don't think so
A planet revolves around a star, and is bigger in mass than the planetoid Pluto; that is, nearly the mass of Mercury or larger. A satellite revolves around a planet, and is smaller than the planet.
