    "Terrestrial" means 'on Earth' or 'like Earth'.

    The so-called 'terrestrial planets' are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.

    The asteroid belt separates them from the 4 gas-giant planets, in a wide

    gap where there should be another planet but there isn't.

    Among the terrestrial planets as a group:

    A). Water

    No. Only earth has water (now).

    B). Iron core

    Yes. Most probably all.

    C). Rocky crust

    Yes. All.

    D). Thin atmosphere.

    E). Dense Atmosphere.

    No.

    Only Venus has a dense one.

    Mercury probably has none.

    Earth has the Goldilocks atmosphere.

    F). Relatively high density.

    Yes.

    True of all the terrestrial planets.

    Earth is the most dense of all the planets.
