Explanation:

• Planets like Mercury have a very thin atmosphere (exosphere) which is not thicker than Earth's. So the first option is incorrect.
• Venus rotates in the opposite direction to its revolution around the Sun. So the third option is incorrect.
• Gas giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) do not have solid surfaces. So the fourth option is incorrect.
• Mercury and Venus have no natural satellites. So the fifth option is incorrect.
• All planets in the solar system revolve around the Sun in the prograde (counter - clockwise when viewed from above the Sun's north pole) direction.

Answer:

revolve around the Sun in the same direction.
