Step 1: Label the Planets

The image shows the Sun and eight planets in order from left to right. The correct order of the planets from the Sun is as follows:

1. Mercury (closest to the Sun)
2. Venus
3. Earth
4. Mars
5. Jupiter
6. Saturn
7. Uranus
8. Neptune (farthest from the Sun)

So, the labels should be:
- First blank: Mercury
- Second blank: Venus
- Third blank: Earth
- Fourth blank: Mars
- Fifth blank: Jupiter
- Sixth blank: Saturn
- Seventh blank: Uranus
- Eighth blank: Neptune

Step 2: Answer the Questions

#### Question 1: Which planet is the smallest in our Solar System?
- Answer: Mercury
- Explanation: Mercury is the smallest planet in the Solar System.

#### Question 2: Which planet is the largest in our Solar System?
- Answer: Jupiter
- Explanation: Jupiter is the largest planet, known as a gas giant.

#### Question 3: Which planet orbits closest to the Sun?
- Answer: Mercury
- Explanation: Mercury is the innermost planet and orbits closest to the Sun.

#### Question 4: Which planet is the farthest from the Sun?
- Answer: Neptune

- Answer: Venus
- Explanation: Venus is often called Earth's "sister planet" because it is similar in size and composition.

#### Question 6: Which planet has only one moon?
- Answer: Pluto (Note: Pluto is not a planet but a dwarf planet; if considering only planets, the answer would be none.)

#### Question 7: Which two planets have the most moons?
- Answer: Jupiter and Saturn
- Explanation: Jupiter has the most moons (over 90), followed by Saturn (over 80).

#### Question 8: Which two planets have no moons at all?
- Answer: Mercury and Venus
- Explanation: Mercury and Venus do not have any natural satellites (moons).

#### Question 9: Which planet has the most visible rings?
- Answer: Saturn
- Explanation: Saturn is famous for its prominent and easily visible ring system.

#### Question 10: Which other planets have rings?
- Answer: Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune
- Explanation: While Saturn has the most prominent rings, Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune also have ring systems, though they are less visible.

#### Question 11: Which planets have a rocky surface?
- Answer: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars
- Explanation: These four planets are classified as terrestrial planets and have solid, rocky surfaces.

#### Question 12: Which planets are made of gas?
- Answer: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune
