About Pluto
At one time Pluto was the ninth planet in our solar system, that is until 2006. Scientists decided that Pluto was too small to be a planet, and was redesignated as a "dwarf planet," and is the largest body in the Kuiper Belt, which is a belt of asteroids that encircles the entire solar system. Pluto, depending on where it is in its orbit between 4.4 billion and 7.4 billion km from the sun.
About Planet
A planet is a celestial body, apparently bigger than poor little Pluto, orbiting a star. They typically have semi-solid metalic core, and the rest of the planet can be either gaseous like Jupiter and Saturn, or more dense and solid like Earth and Mars.
