Solution

The correct option is B Jupiter
There are eight planets in our solar system. Among them, the largest planet of our solar system is Jupiter. It is largest in both mass as well as volume. The mass of Jupiter is 300 times that of Earth. Its diameter i.e. 140,000 kilometers is about 11 times that of Earth’s diameter. Jupiter is 2.5 times more massive that combined mass of the rest of the planets of the solar system. Despite of its bulk size, it has just 10 hours of rotation period.
