Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are what type of planets?
A
Gas Giants
B
Ice Giants
C
Terrestrial Planets
D
Exterior Planets
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A gas giant is a large planet mostly composed of helium and/or hydrogen. These planets, like Jupiter and Saturn in our solar system, don’t have hard surfaces and instead have swirling gases above a solid core.

Detailed explanation-2: -Composed predominantly of hydrogen and helium, the massive Jupiter is much like a tiny star. But despite the fact that it is the largest planet in the solar system, the gas giant just doesn’t have the mass needed to push it into stellar status.

Detailed explanation-3: -The gas giants-Jupiter and Saturn-contain far more gas than rock or ice. Uranus and Neptune are called ice giants because they are smaller and compositionally different from Jupiter and Saturn, the gas giants.
