Question 13

• Earth and Mercury are planets that orbit the Sun.
• The Sun is a star that emits light.
• The Moon is a satellite that orbits Earth (one planet) and reflects light from the Sun.

• Gravity is the force that keeps the planets in orbit around the Sun.
• Solar winds are protected against by planetary magnetic fields (not gravity).
• Planets get energy from the Sun (not gravity).
• While gravity holds objects on planets, the key role in maintaining the solar system's structure is keeping planets in orbit around the Sun.
