Names of nine planets? Starting from the sun and moving outward we have Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, but bear in mind that Pluto has been reclassified as â¦ a dwarf planet, so the solar system has only 8 planets.
I made the decision not to follow AP style in the case of âBlackâ and âwhiteâ when it applies to describing people in 2009. AP style is to capitalize neither; however, terms such as African American, Negro, Caucasian, Italian American or Asian are all capitalized.
A person whose appearance matches these characteristics is said to be a Caucasian. Caucasians don't always have white skin but in the United States caucasian is commonly used to mean white people. Caucasians are found in many countries around the world. So while a Caucasian person in the United States may share certain racial characteristics with a Caucasian person from France, the two people have different ethnic backgrounds â one American, the other French.
