Read the following information about our solar system. Use the illustration to help in answering the
question.
There are eight named planets in our solar system. The planets orbit the sun at their own pace. Mercury
takes the shortest amount of time to orbit the sun; it takes Mercury 87.969 days to make a complete trip
around the sun. Neptune makes the longest journey around the sun. It takes this planet 60,190 days to make
a trip around the sun. Neptune is the farthest planet from the sun; this is the reason for the extended travel
time. No matter the placement of the planets all of them orbit the sun.

the warmer the climate. Mercury is the closest and Neptune is the farthest from the sun.

placement of a planet is to the sun also effects the amount of sunlight that planet receives. The closer
planets receive more sunlight than those planets father away from the sun.
