To solve this problem, we need to match each planet in the diagram with its correct name from the word box. We’ll do this by looking at:
1. The order of planets from the Sun (closest to farthest).
2. Special features like rings or color.
The eight planets in order from the Sun are:
Mercury → Venus → Earth → Mars → Jupiter → Saturn → Uranus → Neptune
Now let’s look at the image and label each one based on position and appearance:
- Closest to the Sun: small gray planet →
Mercury
- Second from Sun: reddish-brown planet →
Venus
- Third from Sun: blue-green with continents →
Earth
- Fourth from Sun: red planet →
Mars
- Fifth from Sun: very large striped planet →
Jupiter
- Sixth from Sun: big planet with prominent rings →
Saturn
- Seventh from Sun: light blue planet with faint rings →
Uranus
- Eighth from Sun: dark blue planet →
Neptune
All labels now match correctly using the word bank.
Final Answer:
From closest to farthest from the Sun: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune
