Answer 1

1. closest to the sun : Mercury
2. Retrograde rotation: Venus and Uranus
3. supports : Earth
4. May have once had liquid water: Mars
5. Most moons: Jupiter
6. Largest ring system: Saturn
7. Rotates on its side : Uranus
8. Blue color from methane gas : Neptune

Step-by-step explanation:

There are about 8 planets including Earth that surrounds the sun and the closest to the sun is the Mercury. all the planets rotates around the sun in an eastward direction while about three planets( Venus, Uranus and Pluto) rotates in retrograde style i.e westwards around the sun

All planets have some similar characteristic in having an orbit around the sun,they have sufficient mass to overcome the force gravity been put on them by external bodies and they are also have a nearly round shape

Answer 2

Closest to the sun is Mercury. Largest ring system is Saturn. Blue color from methane gas is Neptune. Most moons is Jupiter, it has 67 moons. Earth supports life. Uranus rotates on its side. Mars may once have had liquid water. Venus and Uranus are a retrograde rotation. I'm almost positive about this.
