1. Planets can be distinguished from stars because planets do not twinkle, while stars do, due to Earth's atmosphere. Planets also appear brighter and have a steady light. Additionally, planets follow predictable paths called ecliptics across the sky. For more visit here: https://www.tiwariacademy.com/Read more

  5. The Sun is about 100 times larger than Earth in diameter and has a volume that can fit approximately 1.3 million Earths inside it. Despite its immense size, the Sun appears small from Earth due to its vast distance. For more visit here: https://www.tiwariacademy.com/ncert-solutions-class-6-science-cRead more
