-rocky/more dense (unlike the gaseous outer planets)
-closest to the sun
-smallest planets

What are two major differences in the composition of the inner and outer planets?
the inner planets are rocky and warm and the outer planets are made out of gas and is cold
What are the two major parts of the solar system?
The inner and outer planets
What is the inner and outer plants and contrast the two groups of planets?
The four inner, rocky planets are also known as the terrestrial planets. These are; Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The four outer gas giant planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The inner planets are smaller and have a higher average density. The outer planets are much larger, but have no real surface - just atmosphere that gets thicker as you travel inwards. The outer planets all have a ring system (the inner planets dont) while the outer planets have captured a lot more natural satellites or moons than the inner planets.
what Scientists refer to half of the planets as inner planets because they are relatively close to the Sun. They refer to the other half as outer planets. Using the data in the table, classify the planets into one of the two groups.?
One-half of eight is four. So, there are four inner planets and four outer planets. According to the distances in the table, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are inner planets. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are outer planets.
Why are some planets referred to as outer planets?
The planets in the solar system can be sorted to two types: inner planets that are the four closer planets to the Sun, which are rocky and small. And outer planets which are the four other planets which are gaseous and very large.

What are the inner planets and the outer planets and how do the planets in the two groups differ?
The inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The outer planets (they are separated by the asteroid belt) are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The outer planets are different than the inner planets because the outer planets are not solid. They are all made up of gas. However, the inner planets are rocky and hard.
What are two similarities among the inner planets?
wajnaa she is stupid ahahahahahahahahaha
Is Mars a inner or outer planet?
Mars is considered an INNER planet. It is the 4th of the 8 major planets in distance from the Sun, and is closer to the Sun than the Main Belt of asteroids. All 4 inner planets are terrestrial (smaller, rocky planets) while the outer planets are gas giants.*The inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars*The outer planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.Planets past Neptune include all but one of the Dwarf planets, including Pluto, and a large number of smaller icy bodies in the Kuiper Belt.

What are two ways that the eight planets can be classified?
They can be classed as terrestrial planets or gas giants, or inner and outer.

Inner rocky planets and outer gas giant planets. (There are also Ice giants and dwarf planets)
