The one most likely to be false would be D.) its orbit lies between the orbits of the planets mars and jupitar.

because the area that lies between mars and jupitar is the asteroid belt, but dwarf planets dont have an orbit because to many objects (asteroids) lie in its path therefore making it a dwarf planet.
