The moon orbits because of the gravitational pull from a plant. Planets move around the sun because. The lighter object orbits the heavier one, and the Sun is, by far, the heaviest object in the solar system.

Does the sun and the moon move?
The simple answer is YES!!!! Think of the Sun as the centre of the Solar System and the planets and moons orbit around the Sun. However, The Sun is a star in one of the tails of the Milky Way galaxy. The Milky Way, galaxy and its tails also rotate, taking our Sun and planets etc. with them. So the Sun is also moving too!!!!
What can the sun do that the moon and other planets cant?
The sun burn gases and is static, where as the moon and the other planets move and are not sources of light.
What is the move around the sun?
That would be the planets around the sun.
What do the planets and the sun orbit?
the sun does not move, the planets orbit around the sun idiot.
How is the revolution of the moon different from the revolution of planets?
The planets revolve around the sun. The moon revolves around Earth.
Is the moon and sun a planet?
Neither the Sun nor the Moon are planets. Planets rotate around the Sun. Moons rotate around planets. There are other rules to explain the difference between planets and asteroids and comets which also rotate around the sun. Such as planets because of their strong gravitational field, clear objects in their rotation around the Sun, something a small asteroid, nor a small comet can do. However, neither the Sun (which planets rotate around), nor, the Moon (which rotates around the planet Earth), is a planet.
How is moon different than a planet?
The moon orbits the planet Earth rather than the sun, so it is considered a moon.
Why the planets move around the sun?
The gravitational pull of the Sun.
What do the planets move around?
they orbit the sun
Do all planets move around the sun or around the earth?
The planets that make part of the solar system move around the Sun. The huge gravity power of the Sun maintain all planets and moons orbiting around it on an elliptical form.
What is heavenly objects move around the sun?
That would be the planets around the sun.
Why planets move along a circular path around sun?
They don't. They move in ellipses around the Sun.
