Answer from: angelrenee2000

Mercury - Mercury has "wrinkles". As the iron core of the planet flattened and contracted, the surface became wrinkled, which is what scientists call Lobate Scarps.
Venus - Venus rotates in the opposite direction of most planets.
Mars - Mars will have a ring. It's largest moon, Phobos, will (in about 20-40 million years) be pulled apart by gravity and the material left behind will turn into a ring.
Jupiter - Jupiter has the shortest days of all the planets. It takes 9 hours and 55 minutes.
Saturn - Saturn is our solar system's flattest planet.
Uranus - Uranus actually has two sets of very thin, dark colored rings.
Neptune - Neptune has 14 moons and one of which is believed to be the coldest place in our solar system.
Hope this helped!

It is a small planet, just 4850 kilometers (~3000 miles) in diameter. The side of its surface which is facing the sun is extremely hot as 700oK.

2. Venus: Its surface is a brownish-yellow color because of its thick atmosphere which is composed of largely of sulfuric acid and CO2. Its size is a little over 12,000 kilometers (7300 miles) in diameter. It rotates the sun in 243.
