Terrestrial planets have solid surfaces, are smaller compared to Jovian planets, are composed mainly of nitrogen and carbon dioxide. They are less dense, spinless, and have few moons compared to Jovian planets. “They include Mercury, Venus, and the Earth.” On the other hand, Jovian planets have more moons, are denser, are more flattened at the poles because they spin more, have atmospheres that are majorly made of helium and hydrogen, are bigger, and have gaseous surfaces. “They include Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.”
Explain what criteria determines whether a planet is to be considered either Jovian or terrestrial. Identify the Jovian and terrestrial planets. Briefly describe each planet, incorporating the peculiarities of each.
