Most of the asteroids within our solar system can be found within the Asteroid Belt. Located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, the Asteroid Belt consists of millions of individual asteroids of varying sizes - from a speck of dust to hundreds of kilometers in diameter. The largest object within the belt is a dwarf planet - Ceres - which has a mass of 9.47x1020kg and a diameter of 476.2km.

What planets are between the asteroid belt and the sun?
The planets between the asteroid belt and the Sun are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. These four inner planets are also known as the terrestrial planets because they are primarily composed of rock and metal.
How many number of inner planets?
There are 4, all of which lie between the sun and the asteroid belt. These planets are (from lowest distance from the sun to the highest): Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.
Is Mars one of the outer planets because it is located inside asteroid belt?
Mars does not lie within the asteroid belt. It orbits nearer the Sun than the asteroid belt, so is an inner planet. In order from the Sun, the solar bodies or groups are:The Inner Planets: MercuryVenusEarthMarsThe Asteroid Belt and Dwarf Planet CeresThe Outer Planets: JupiterSaturnUranusNeptuneThe Cometary Belt CentaursThe Kuiper Belt Dwarf Planet PlutoDwarf Planet HaumeaDwarf Planet MakemakeThe Scattered Disc Dwarf Planet ErisThe Oort Cloud
Are asteroid lie within the asteroid belt true or false?
True. Asteroids are rocky objects that orbit the Sun and many of them can be found within the asteroid belt located between Mars and Jupiter.
Do all the terrestrial planets lie inside the asteroid belt?
Current thinking is that the Asteroid Belt never constituted a single terrestrial body in the past; for whatever reason, there was not enough mass in the Belt for the matter there to accrete into a single body, as happened in the case of Earth or Mars, e.g.
The four outer planets lie beyond what?

The outer Planets lie beyond what?
The asteroid belt, which lies beyond the "inner planets".
Planets whose orbits lie closer to the sun than the asteroids?
The planets whose orbits lie closer to the sun than the asteroids are Mercury and Venus. These two planets are part of the inner planets, also known as terrestrial planets, and are situated closer to the sun compared to the asteroid belt, which is located between Mars and Jupiter.
Where do the dwarf planets lie?

How many asteroidcomet belts exist in our solar system?
Mars does not have an asteroid belt. The Asteroid Belt happens to lie between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, but does not belong to either of them.
