Detailed explanation-1: -What do the outer planets have in common? All of the four outer planets contain rings, have gaseous and icy surfaces, have many moons around them, and are farthest away from the Sun.
Detailed explanation-2: -Unlike the terrestrial planets that make up our inner solar system-Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars-the Jovian planets do not have solid surfaces. Instead, they are composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, with traces of methane, ammonia, water, and other gases in their atmospheres.
Detailed explanation-3: -False. The outer planets are much larger and more massive than earth and do not have solid surfaces.
Detailed explanation-4: -The four planets that are more distant from the sun-Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune-are called gas giants. Gas giants are huge compared with Earth, and they do not have solid surfaces. They are big balls of gas. Jupiter and Saturn are composed mostly of hydrogen and helium.
