All the planets move in orbits round the Sun. The orbits are technically elliptical but with low eccentricity factors so the orbits are nearly circular.

The distances are conveniently measured in astronomical units (AU) with the Earth's average distance 1 AU.

The distances to the other planets vary. Saturn is at 9 AU from the Sun, so its distance from the Earth varies between 8 AU when we are both on the same side of the Sun and 10 AU when we are on opposite sides. Mars is at 1.4 AU so its distance varies between 0.4 and 2.4 AU, a big difference.

Are the outer planets and dwarf plants much bigger than the inner planets and dwarf planets?

Yes. The four inner planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars and smaller than the four outer planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Earth is largest inner planet, and Neptune is the smallest outer planet. Neptune is around 14 times larger in terms of diameter than the Earth. The dwarf planets are all smaller than any of the actual planets.

How many planets and dwarf planets are in the solar system?

There are 13 in total: Planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Dwarf planets: Ceres, Pluto, Eris, Makemake, and Haumea. It seems likely that several other large objects, such as Sedna, Qaoar and others, will eventually be recognized as dwarf planets. It also seems likely that more dwarf planets will be discovered.
