Which is an inferior planet?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) Venus.
Venus is considered an inferior planet in the solar system, meaning it orbits the Sun closer than Earth does. This is in contrast to superior planets, which orbit the Sun farther away than Earth. The other options, Pluto, Neptune, and Mars, are all superior planets.
The distinction between inferior and superior planets is an important concept in astronomy and is relevant for understanding the relative positions and movements of the planets in our solar system.
