There are five bodies currently classified as dwarf planets. All of the except for Ceres are beyond the orbit of Neptune, with their orbits extending into the Kuiper belt. Ceres is the smallest of the dwarf planets, but far closer. It is in the asteroid belt between the orbit of Mars and Jupiter.

Are dwarf planets and minor planets the samet hing?

Dwarf planets are celestial bodies that have enough mass to have a gravitational pull by the sun, but they are not large enough to be considered a regular planet. They are also too big to be satellites. Minor planets are in direct orbit with the sun. They are not dominant planets, and they are not comets. This qualifies all dwarf planets as minor planets. So, to answer your question, not exactly. All dwarf planets are minor planets. But not all minor planets are dwarf planets. Hope this helps you!!
