It's spherical and it orbits the sun.

one is a planet
Pluto was declared not a planet because it didn't obey one of the three rules that i needed to obey to be a planet. It had to clear its orbits, which Pluto didn't because of its minuscule size. Pluto is approximately the size of half the United States. Also Pluto wasn't the only Pluto floating around in our solar system, apparently there are other kuiper belt objects even bigger than Pluto that are not declared planets. If Pluto was a planet these other Pluto like objects would be too. I hope this helped you!
Because 2 years ago the astronomers found out that Pluto is not a planet. It is too small to be a planet. Some authorities are still rooting for Pluto! They still consider it is a planet, though very small.
It is extremely small and it has no rings!

Pluto differs from the other outer planets in many ways, which is why it is no longer a planet. For example, it isn't a gas giant like the other outer planets. It isn't gassy and is relatively small. Pluto is made out of rock and doesn't have a thick gassy atmosphere like the Jovian planets; it has an icy atmosphere that melts only when near the sun to form an "atmosphere". Pluto doesn't have a quick, rapid spin on its axis like the gas giants. The Jovian planets take only a few hours to make 1 spin on its axis. Pluto takes a few days to spin 360 degrees on its axis. The gas giants all have rings, but Pluto does not. Pluto also has an elliptical orbit more like an asteroid or comet than a planet or gas giant. Pluto is considered a "dwarf" planet since it is small and found in the Kuiper Belt (asteroid belt). Finally, Pluto has only one moon, large compared to Pluto, and the gas giants all have a lot of moons which are small compared to the gas planets.

Its not that Pluto isn't considered a planet anymore. Pluto is just considered a dwarf planet.
I assume you mean "as a planet".The main reason is that the more you study the solar system the more obvious it becomes that Pluto just doesn't deserve the name. Everything else that was considered to be a planet was by far the largest thing anywhere near its orbit.Earth shares its orbit with its satellite the Moon, about two orders of magnitude less massive, and that's the closest any of the actual planets get to having something else of significant relative mass near their orbit. Pluto's orbit crosses that of Neptune, which is about three orders of magnitude more massive. Neptune is just behind Earth with something in its orbit that's about 2.5 orders of magnitude smaller... not Pluto, but its own moon Triton, which is noticeably larger than Pluto is.Not only does Pluto's orbit cross Neptune's, it turns out there's a lot of rock that spends most of its time out beyond Neptune, and Pluto is just the biggest chunk we've happened to find so far (and not by much at best; Eris is roughly the same size, and may even be larger).Lumping Pluto in with the planets when we thought it was the size of Earth made sense.Calling it a planet when we discovered it was maybe as big as Mars stilll made sense.Calling it a planet when it became clear that not only was it not as big as Mercury, but not as big as the Moon? Ludicrous.The IAC definition of "planet" seems a bit arbitrary in some ways, but realistically planets are kind of like pornography: it's hard to define, but we know it when we see it, and Pluto ain't it.
There are a few ways in which Neptune is special. First of all, it's the furthest planet from the Sun (since Pluto is nog longer classified as a planet). It was also the first planet to be found by mathematical prediction (i.e. calculating where it should be) rather than empirical observation (i.e. looking for it). For more detailed information, see Neptune's Wikipedia article.

well......... planets can be use in a sentence in many ways for example: our solar system use to have nine planets but now they don't OR My favorite planet is Jupiter (or any other planet that you like.
Planet X is just the temporary name used for a planet that hasn't been named yet. For example, Pluto was called Planet X before it got its official name. There isn't currently any unnamed planet being called Planet X.
