In our solar system, the planets Mercury and Venus orbit at a distance less than 1 AU. Since the Earth orbits at an "average" distance of one astronomical unit, you might also argue that Earth, owing to orbital eccentricity, sometimes is closer to the Sun than one AU.
less than 1 au
Mercury, Venus, and Mars.
No, it has much less mass.
They are less than 1 AU from the sun.

No, it has much less mass.
Mercury is much closer to the sun than Venus. It has less of an atmosphere, much higher temperatures, and a very short year. Venus has an very sulfur-rich atmosphere, cooler temperatures than Mercury, and a longer year than Mercury.
They are less than 1 AU from the sun.
Mercury and Venus take less time to orbit the Sun than the Earth does. ummm...if you need 5 then...earth, venus, mercury, mars and jupiter
No, Mercury is smaller than Venus in terms of size. Mercury has a diameter of about 4,880 kilometers while Venus has a diameter of about 12,104 kilometers.
Mercury and Venus both orbit the sun at less than 1 astronomical unit (AU). Mercury orbits the sun at an average distance of .387 AU (about 58 million km) and Venus orbits at an average distance of .723 AU (about 108 million km). Compare these distances to 1 AU which is about 150 million km, which happens to be the average sun to earth distance; which defines the astronomical unit.
