The decision to classify Pluto as a dwarf planet was based on updated definitions of a planet by the International Astronomical Union in 2006. Pluto did not meet all the criteria for a planet, such as clearing its orbit of debris, hence it was reclassified as a dwarf planet.
"Pluto was reclassified from a planet to a dwarf planet in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union due to its size and its orbit overlapping with Neptune's. This decision was made to more accurately classify celestial objects in our solar system."
It is correct to say "on the planet." This is because we live on the surface of the planet, not inside of it.
That is the correct spelling of the planet Mars.
Pluto was named after the Roman god of the underworld. It was considered a fitting name due to its dark and distant location in the solar system. However, the decision to classify Pluto as a dwarf planet in 2006 has led to some debate over its official status.

It isn't a planet. It doesn't exist in the solar system anymore. As a dwarf planet, but not as a proper planet.
No, NASA (and now the whole world) does not classify Pluto as a planet. It is classified as a dwarf planet.
Mercury is one of the rocky planets.

Planet pizza is the correct answer to your question.
A terrestrial planet is one with solid ground so the Gas Giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) would not classify, as they have no solid surface.
The mass and weight of the object classifies the object as a planet. For example Pluto's mass and weight proved to be too small for a planet therefore, it classifies as a dwarf planet.
That is correct it is no longer a planet.

Pluto is smaller than was originally believed - while it was still considered a planet, it was the smallest of them.But what ultimately put it in a separate category was the decision, by the IAU, to classify a planet as an object which - apart from having a round shape - has "cleared its surroundings", which basically means it is the gravitationally dominant object in the surroundings of its object.
That is the correct spelling of the planet Mars.
