Detailed explanation-1: -The planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, are called terrestrial because they have a compact, rocky surface like Earth’s terra firma. The terrestrial planets are the four innermost planets in the solar system.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun – a dusty, cold, desert world with a very thin atmosphere. Mars is also a dynamic planet with seasons, polar ice caps, canyons, extinct volcanoes, and evidence that it was even more active in the past.
Detailed explanation-3: -This activity will emphasize that the planets fall into two compositional groups: the terrestrial (rock-like) planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, and Pluto) and the gas planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune).
Detailed explanation-4: -Gas Giant. A giant planet composed mainly of gas. Super-Earth. A potentially rocky world, larger than Earth. Neptune-like. Gaseous worlds around the size of Neptune. Terrestrial. A rocky world outside our solar system. 13-Apr-2022
