It does have a planet in a sence, but conditions to live there are next to impossible, since its actually the core. Based on the fact that the pressure about 1 hour down parachuting through jupitur is 230 degrees fahrenhiet hotter than earths average temperature, and the pressure is 26x that of earths, its highly unlikely. Im not ruling jupitur out, since I think there are possibly flying/floating creatures in a temperate zone of jupitur, though nothing that we could think of at the top of our heads.

It is not possible at all. This is because the tidal forces exerted on such a body would have it destroyed long before it reached Jupiter's surface, let alone reach its core. Another way to see this is the fact that Jupiter has rings. Generally, if a body were to enter an area inside Jupiter's Roche limit it would be destroyed to form rings, it wouldn't stay in one piece at all.

No! We have photos taken of the planet with satellites. If there were a planet underneath the gas clouds, it would be extremely hot and could not support any sort of life as we know it.

It is impossible. Jupiter is so massive and dense, it's pressure gets greater and greater as you delve further into it. The pressure would DESTROY anything inside of it.

a solid core? it couldn't support life because of the pressure and the heat.
