Gas giants have enormous atmospheres, it may be said they consist only of atmosphere. They have a large mass, and they have rings.

They are all dense and rocky. The gas giants are made of gas and are big. ps. pluto is not a plnet anymore!! ^_^
Gas giants are composed mostly of gases like hydrogen and helium, while terrestrial planets are predominantly composed of solid materials like rock and metal. Gas giants have thick atmospheres and lack solid surfaces, whereas terrestrial planets have solid surfaces that can support geological activity. Gas giants are much larger in size compared to terrestrial planets.
Bigger planets are more likely to be gas giants while smaller ones are more likely to be terrestrial. This of course is not the answer to your question which is, of all planets that may exist, is there a greater likelyhood of there being terrestrial planets or gas giants?
Terrestrial planets are rocky and have solid surfaces, such as Earth and Mars, while gas giants are made up mostly of gases like hydrogen and helium, with no solid surface, such as Jupiter and Saturn. Gas giants also have thick atmospheres and are much larger in size compared to terrestrial planets.
The average terrestrial planet has only about 10.3% of the diameter and 0.4% of the mass of the average gas giant.
Density. The gas giants all retained a good bit of hydrogen.
why
One key difference is their composition: terrestrial planets are mainly made of rock and metal, while gas giants are mostly composed of hydrogen and helium. Gas giants are also much larger in size and have thick atmospheres, while terrestrial planets have solid surfaces. Additionally, gas giants are typically located farther from the Sun in the outer regions of a solar system.
The Asteroid Belt is a demarcation between the gas giants and terrestrial type planets.
The terrestrial planets in our solar system are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. The gas giants are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Terrestrial planets have solid surfaces, while gas giants are primarily composed of gases like hydrogen and helium.
Terrestrial planets are rocky, have solid surfaces, and are located closer to the sun compared to gas giants. They have thin or no atmospheres, lack rings, and have fewer moons compared to gas giants. Additionally, terrestrial planets are composed of metals and silicate rocks.
terrestrial... there made of rock and considerably smaller than the gas giants jupiter and saturn
All of the terrestrial planets are within 1.52 AU of the Sun. All of the gas giants are greater then 5 AU of the sun. The relationship is that most of the terrestrial planets are very close to the sun while gas giants are much further away.
Gas giants like Jupiter and stars like our Sun.

They are both planets !!!!
