The correct response is: The outer planets are larger than the inner planets.

The outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) are indeed larger in size compared to the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars), which are rocky and smaller. Additionally, the outer planets are primarily composed of gases and ices, whereas the inner planets are mainly solid and rocky.
