Why didn't the outer planets lose the lighter gases in their atmospheres?

I really need help if you could explain this to me. I'm begging you.

1. ) They have more mass, and thus more gravity to hold on to their atmospheres.

2. ) They are more distant from the Sun, so the solar winds that have stripped the atmospheres of Mercury and Mars, for example, down to practically nothing, are not as strong.

Yes it is

1.B
2.C
3.B
4.C
5.B
6.A
7.D
This is for lesson 4 unit 3 the outer planets

I don't understand your question.

The outer planets are bigger. Therefore they have more mass, meaning they have a stronger pull of gravity which is keeping the gas from floating away.

Yes lol

@Jenna Kellerman

By now Middle Schoolers and Elementery Schoolers already knows what that is.

show bob and vagien

lexi is right, sadly this kind of stuff you really can't hide your kids from anymore

You just cant. :C

This was very helpful! Thank you for the help, this will defiantly help with my science report!

Thank you, you really helped me understand this better. You want Grey's Anatomy, don't you? :)

do you know the way

because the outer planets are made of gas so their atmospheres are making their weight stronger than inner terrestrial planets.

Haha, me too. :)

Thank you so much @Meredith Grey!

@Bigbootybob four real dude nasty what the heck

''*The point....''

Lmao thnks.. fr th nswrs

thnk u vry mouch

Thank you Meredith, and REED= to PEED

joe mama ;o

Hey! I totally agree with #@Jenna Kellerman!That is so disgusting! Btw, #April, the answer is the outer planets hold lotsa mass. Hope this helps!

Your on this website to don't act like you are on here for no reason kid

The outer planets do not loose gas because they are so big and they could hold all of the gas in the atmosphere

hey guys who's joe?

Mr. Bob, this name is inappropriate for this site. Most of the people looking for answers here are middle school and elementary children. They point of this site is to help other students. You have given younger students ideas they should not be thinking, and they may look up this name. The content of your text is also inappropriate. If this behavior continues, I am going to contact Jiskha personally. Please rethink the content of your text, and the name. Thanks.
