A dwarf is a very short being from Norse and Germanic mythology. They are usually depicted as men with long beards and dirty faces. They have a deep connection with the earth and usually have magical talents.
The planet "Pluto" was recently reclassified as a dwarf planet because astronomers believed that it was too small to be classified as a "regulation" planet. The original images of Pluto made it look like a full size planet, but later observations revealed that it was about a tenth of the size that we first thought and that it had an orbit that can only be described as "wacky".
Pluto was originally classified as the ninth planet in our solar system in 1930 but was reclassified as a dwarf planet by the International Astronomical Union in 2006. It has five known moons, with the largest moon, Charon, being about half the size of Pluto itself. Pluto's orbit is highly elliptical, meaning it is not a perfectly circular path around the Sun.
No. Pluto is a dwarf planet, not a star, and is not visible to the naked eye.
First, Mercury is NOT a "dwarf planet." It's a small one, compared to Earth, but it meets full planetary criteria. Pluto and Ceres are dwarf planets. Second, Mercury has been known since Antiquity. It's plainly visible at dawn or dusk if one knows where to look.
Pluto is a Dwarf Planet because it is too small to be a Classical Planet. Dwarf Planets are much smaller than Classical Planets. If you look at a diagram of the solar system with Pluto in it, you will see that it is much smaller compared to the other Classical Planets.
just look at Pluto
Pluto is the tiniest planet in the solar system. It is the planet farthest from the Sun. The planet's color is blue. It is the coldest planet. Pluto is now known as a "dwarf planet."
That is Pluto. Since Pluto is a dwarf planet you can't find it, because it is so small.
Plato is not a planet but a philosopher.If you mean Pluto: it is no longer considered a planet, but a "dwarf planet"; something like a large planetoid. A planetoid larger than Pluto has already been discovered - look up information about Eris. It seems reasonable to expect that more such "dwarf planets" will be found in the future.

Pluto is closer in size and composition to the MOONS of the outer planets Neptune and Uranus. It is not as substantial as the inner terrestrial planets, but is typical of many icy objects that orbit past Neptune. The gas giants are massive objects with deep, dense atmospheres. Pluto is so small it cannot hold much of an atmosphere at all.

That's a difficult question to answer, just because of how it's phrased. It is a common misconception that Pluto is no longer considered a planet. This idea is silly, though. Pluto is very obviously a planet. It is, however, considered a minor planet, rather than a major one, because it does not match defining qualifications to be a major planet. The reason it was not originally classified as a minor planet is that technology simply wasn't sharp enough to give us a good look at it. Pluto remained something of an enigma, with its highly elliptical orbit and elusive features. We just didn't know how to classify Pluto. As technology has progressed, we have been able to identify that Pluto is just too small to be considered a major planet. It is instead considered to be a dwarf planet, a category not even recognized at the time of Pluto's discovery. If we were to consider Pluto a major planet, we would also have to consider Ceres, Eris, and Makemake major planets. To synopsize your answer, no, there is not enough evidence to support the idea that Pluto is not a planet. Mainstream science doesn't consider Pluto to not be a planet. Popular culture captured Pluto's changed classification and incorporated it into mythology.
