Gas planets are typically much larger than rocky planets. They are made up mostly of gases like hydrogen and helium and have lower density compared to rocky planets. Gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn can be tens or even hundreds of times larger than rocky planets like Earth.
No, the inner planets are the terrestrial or rocky planets. The outer planets are the gas giant planets; Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. They are mainly made up of Hydrogen and Helium gas.
The five major differences between the gas giant planets and the rocky planets are as follows: 1. Gas giants are larger, both in diameter and in mass. 2. Gas giants have a much larger proportion of hydrogen and other light weight elements. Rocky planets have more rock. 3. Gas giants are farther away from the sun. 4. Gas giants are much colder. 5. Gas giants are made mostly (in some cases, perhaps entirely) of gas, while rocky planets are mostly solid with comparatively little gas. Edit: Here's another, if you want 6 differences: The Gas Giants have extensive systems of moons (and they have rings too).
All four rocky planets are much smaller than gas planets.
The rocky planets in our solar system are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. These planets have solid surfaces primarily made of rock and metal, unlike the gas giants which are mostly composed of gases such as hydrogen and helium.
Please tell me you mean Planets not Plants, that is an odd image. Rocky Planets are made mostly of Rock ie solid stuff. Gas Giants are made mostly of Gas. Most gas giants are much bigger than the rocky planets. So far most of the extra solar planets are gas giants (they are bigger so easier to find)
the gas planets are bigger than the rocky planets

Rocky planets are denser than gas giants.
The terrestrial planets are; Mercury Venus, Earth, Marswhile the gas planets are; Jupiter Saturn uranus and neptune hope that helps u!!
they are rocky and have terrain areas the rest of the planets are all gas

no 2nd Answer: While some of our large planets are made of gasses, Earth's moon, 'Luna', is mostly rocky.
