The answer is the same for the moons of Mars as it is for any orbiting object. Angular momentum keeps them up, and gravitation keeps them from flying away. Those are the two balanced forces.

What forces cause the planets to go around the sun and stay in their orbits?

gravity


A specific answer on why planets and moons of planets stay in their orbits?

Planets and moons remain in their orbits because of the gravitational pull other bigger planets or stars have on them, for example the Earth stays in its orbit because of the gravitational force it is subjects to created by the Sun, and the moon stays in its orbit because of the gravitational force it is subject to created by the Earth. It's all about gravity and force.

Gravity, just like our moon. gravity pulls it around


Why does moons orbit the planets?

because the planets' gravity pull them so that they do not go away and the moons revolve around them with a constant speed so they stay in their orbit

because of the gravity the sun has and also the planets have gravity turning around the sun


Is gravity the reason that the planets stay in orbits around the sun?

Yes, the gravity of the sun causes all celestial bodies to orbit around.


Why does the planets stay on their orbits as they revolve around the sun?

Because the suns gravitational pull stops them from zooming off.
