∙ 12y agoThe inner planets are closer to the Sun compared to the outer planets, have solid rocky surfaces, and are smaller in size compared to the outer planets.
Planets that do not have rings around them are called terrestrial planets. These include Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. Terrestrial planets are characterized by their solid rocky surfaces.
The four planets closest to the sun are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, and they are all terrestrial planets, meaning they have solid rocky surfaces.
Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are the rocky planets in our solar system. These planets have solid surfaces composed primarily of silicate rocks and metals.
The inner planets are smaller, rocky planets with solid surfaces, while the outer planets are much larger gas giants without solid surfaces. The inner planets formed close to the Sun where it was hotter, causing heavier materials to condense and form rocky planets, while the outer planets formed in colder regions where lighter gases like hydrogen and helium could accumulate and form gas giants.

Terrestrial.
All terrestrial planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars) have solid surfaces, relatively high densities, and are composed primarily of rock and metal. They also have thin or non-existent atmospheres compared to gas giants.

They have solid surfaces composed of rock.
Some examples of solar system bodies with solid rocky surfaces and metallic cores include Earth, Mars, Mercury, and the Moon. These bodies are primarily composed of rock and metal, with the core being composed of mainly iron and nickel.
The properties of the solar system's planets include characteristics such as size, composition, atmosphere, temperature, and distance from the Sun. Each planet has its own unique features, such as the presence of rings (Saturn), extreme temperatures (Mercury and Venus), and a thin atmosphere (Mars). Additionally, factors like orbital period and rotation rate also vary among the planets.
The inner planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, are rocky planets. They have solid surfaces and are mainly composed of rock and metal.
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.
