Which is the third planet from the Sun?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Earth

The governing concept is the order of the planets according to their average distance from the Sun. Starting outward, the sequence is Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, followed by Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Since Mercury is first and Venus is second, Earth occupies the third position; therefore option C is correct. Mars is the fourth planet, so it is a plausible distractor for students who remember the inner planets but miscount. Mercury and Venus are also incorrect because they lie closer to the Sun than Earth. Earth’s position is significant because it receives an appropriate range of solar energy and has liquid water, an atmosphere, and other conditions that support life. The answer depends on orbital order, not size or mass.
