All planets in our solar system are somewhat squished in shape due to their rotation, or are "oblate spheroids" - but Venus is the least oblate or the most spherical, owing to its slow rotation.

What must a planet be larger than to be a true planet?

A planet must be large enough for its gravity to pull it into a nearly round shape. In our solar system, a planet needs to have cleared its orbit of other debris to be considered a true planet.


What shape is Mars?

Overal the shape of the planet Mars is round. However, there is some indentations in the planet that make it a little distorted and not perfectly round.


Does the moon count as a planet?

No, the moon is not considered a planet. It is a natural satellite that orbits a planet, in this case Earth. A planet is defined as a celestial body that orbits a star and is massive enough to have its own gravity shape it into a round or nearly round shape.

What are the four rules to classify a dwarf planet?

Type your answer here... if a planet breaks any of these 3 rules it becomes a dwarf planet is in orbit around the sun has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium (a nearly round shape), and has "cleared the neighbourhood" around its orbit


Can a dwarf planet be round?

Yes, dwarf planets can be round. Like regular planets, dwarf planets are large enough for their own gravity to pull them into a nearly spherical shape, making them round. Examples of round dwarf planets include Pluto and Eris.


What is a plannet?

A planet is a celestial body that orbits around a star, has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid forces so that it assumes a nearly round shape, and has cleared its orbit of other debris.


why Pluto has a shape that is nearly round, and it orbits the Sun. It has five known moons. Why is it called a dwarf planet and not a planet?

A.It is too far from the Sun.B.Its orbit is not cleared of like-sized or larger objects.C.It is not large enough in size.D.It does not have rings.the answer is C


What Object that orbits the sun is round and cleared the area of it's orbit?

The object that orbits the Sun, is round, and has cleared the area of its orbit is a planet. An example of such a celestial body is Earth. According to the International Astronomical Union's definition, a planet must be in orbit around the Sun, have sufficient mass for a nearly round shape, and have cleared its orbital path of other debris.


What planet is not large enough to be called a planet?

The 3 attributes of a planet: 1. is in orbit around the Sun 2. is nearly round 3. has cleared its orbit
