Question

what is one way the gas giants differ from the terrestrial planets?

ANSWER

Planets that are largely comprised of rock, such as rocky or terrestrial planets, are not like gas giants. Unlike rocky planets, gas giants lack a clearly defined surface there is no obvious line separating the atmosphere from the surface. The atmospheres of the gas giants are primarily hydrogen and helium.
