Answer :
Answer:
A planet is a celestial body that is in orbit around the Sun, has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium (nearly round) shape, and has cleared the neighbourhood around its orbit.
Explanation:
Answer:
Below
Explanation:
1) It must orbit a sun (solarsystem.nasa.gov)
2) Has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a sphere (er.jsc.nasa.gov)
3) It must be big enough that its gravity cleared away any other objects of a similar size near its orbit around the Sun. (solarsystem.nasa.gov)
4) Has cleared the neighborhood around its orbit. (solarsystem.nasa.gov)
