they are called terrestrial planets.
for example: Mars (The Red Giant)
They all have a solid, rocky surface.
The inner planets, except earth, are made up of rocks. They have a hard surface. The earth would be one of these except we have water. The outer planets are gas giants and do not have a solid surface.
Planets with solid rocky surfaces are called terrestrial planets. These planets are usually composed of rock and metal, with a thinner atmosphere compared to gas giants. Examples of terrestrial planets include Earth, Mars, Venus, and Mercury.
The inner planets are all considered rocky planets in that under atmospheric layers, they have a rocky surface. The outer planets are made of gas and liquid, and are called gas giants. They have no solid surface. Also, all the outer planets have rings while the inner planets do not.
Yes, Pluto has a rocky and solid surface.
The inner planets are small and rocky, the outer planets are much larger and have no solid surface, they are called the gas giants.

Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars are the Rocky planets. They are called so simply because they are rocky, their outer layer is solid. All other planets in the solar system are gaseous.
Rocky planets, also known as terrestrial planets, are planets that are primarily composed of rock and metal. They have solid surfaces and relatively high densities compared to gas giants. The four rocky planets in our solar system are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.

Yes, Pluto has a rocky and solid surface.
Jupiter and Saturn are gas giants, not rocky planets. They are primarily made up of gases like hydrogen and helium and do not have a solid surface like rocky planets such as Earth.
Mars is a solid planet with a rocky surface. It has a thin atmosphere composed mainly of carbon dioxide.
Depth of the atmosphere. Gas planets have the thickest and largest of atmospheres. Below gas planets atmospheres are pools of hydrogen or in some cases volatile ices that form in a giant ocean above the surface. It's estimated that Jupiter's rocky surface is only about the size of three Earths but the bloated atmosphere makes for most of the planet.
A terrestrial planet is a planet that has a solid surface made of rock.
