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: -The four gas giants in our solar system are Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, and Jupiter. These are also called the Jovian planets. “Jovian planet” refers to the Roman god Jupiter and was intended to indicate that all of these planets were similar to Jupiter.

Detailed explanation-2: -Uranus is one of two ice giants in the outer solar system (the other is Neptune). Most (80% or more) of the planet’s mass is made up of a hot dense fluid of “icy” materials – water, methane, and ammonia – above a small rocky core. Near the core, it heats up to 9, 000 degrees Fahrenheit (4, 982 degrees Celsius).

Detailed explanation-3: -Four big gassy planets lived there too: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

Detailed explanation-4: -Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are the Jovian planets, the gas giants; planets composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, with swirling atmospheres, much farther out from the Sun. The differences between these inner and outer planets are the result of the Sun’s radiant energy.

Detailed explanation-5: -These images of the four Jovian planets-Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune-hint at some of the remarkable attributes that set them apart from the smaller, rocky terrestrial planets.
