What is a dwarf planet?

A dwarf planet is a small planetary-mass object that is in direct orbit of the Sun – something smaller than any of the eight classical planets, but still a world in its own right.

The prototypical dwarf planet is Pluto. The interest of dwarf planets to planetary geologists is that being possibly differentiated and geologically active bodies, they may display planetary geology

The dwarf planet, body, other than a natural satellite (moon), that orbits the Sun and that is, for practical purposes, smaller than the planet Mercury yet large enough for its own gravity to have rounded its shape substantially.
