Answer:

This is true

These are the 3 factors:

  • Planet's Distance To Sun
  • Planet's Reflectivity
  • Planets Surface (Through Greenhouse Effect)

The thickness of the atmosphere, seems to be part of it, and I belive that is true, as it plays a role in temperature, determening wether if it can help with how warm or cold a planet is.

A planet's distance from the sun definitly plays a role, becuase depending on how far or close a planet is to the sun, the warmer it can be.

Planet's Surface goes through the process of greenhouse effect, causing a(n) planet to be able to get hotter
