Correct Answer - Option 2 : Venus

The correct answer is Venus.

  • Venus was given the nickname evening star and morning star because of its bright, consistent presence.
  • It is often called Earth’s twin because it is similar in shape and size to our own planet.

Venus
  • It is the hottest planet in the solar system.
  • It is also known as "Earth's Twin".
  • It is the brightest star in the solar system.
  • It is also known as "Evening star" and "Morning star" as it can be seen in the morning and evening with open eyes.
Mercury
  • In our solar system, the smallest planet is mercury.
  • Mercury is the innermost planet of the solar system and the eighth in size and mass.
  • Its closeness to the Sun and its smallness make it the most elusive of the planets visible to the unaided eye.
