  1. They are Pluto, Eris, and Makemake.


  2. Yes they are Pluto, Eris and Makemake

    But this is odd.

    There are lots of known objects which could be categorized as plutoids.

    Quaoar ought to be one (discovered ca. 2002).

    And proably Sedna.

  3. Pluto (obviously), Eris (which is actually larger than Pluto),  and Makemake (which has no moon).

    I have no idea why they decided to call it "makemake", but it was the most recently discovered Plutoid.

  4. Pluto: self explanitory

    Eris: almost perfectly spherical asteroid in kuiper belt.



    Makemake: a newly classified plutoid in the kuiper belt
