Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 4 : Jupiter

• A planet is a large space object which revolves around a star.
• Eight planets have been discovered in our solar system.
• The inner planets are those which are closest to the Sun.
  • Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are the inner planets.
  • The inner planets are made up mostly of rock.
• The outer planets are farther from the Sun.
  • They are generally giant balls of gases with rings around them.
  • The outer planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
• The heaviest planet is Jupiter, which is also the largest planet.
