no. Pluto is bigger than charon,its moon. Just remember:moons are always
smaller than their planet.
No its half as big as pluto.
Pluto does not look like the moon, unless you have a very big imagination. Pluto is brown and white, and covered with ice.
no it wasent it was its own planet.
No. Pluto's main moon, Charon at about half of Pluto's diameter, is the largest moon in proportion to the object it orbits. Several moons in the solar system, including our own, are actually larger than Pluto. The solar system's largest moon is Ganymede, which orbits Jupiter.
No. Pluto is a separate planet from Neptune and has its own moon.There is a theory that Pluto was once a moon of Neptune but managed to escape when the solar system was still young.
The International Astronomical Union (IAU) is the body that makes such determinations. They voted to demote Pluto, and rightly so. Pluto is smaller than our moon. Charon, Pluto's moon, is nearly as big as it is, and Eris is bigger. There are eight planets, and that is good enough, and it is a useful definition for solar systems beyond our own.
Two questions in one - see related questions.
There is no such planet known. In our solar system, the planet whose moon is closest in size to the planet which it orbits is none other than our own planet Earth. However, the Moon is still much smaller than the Earth. Pluto has a Moon that's big, but Pluto isn't a "planet" now, of course.

Pluto has a moon named Charon that is about half the size of Pluto itself, making it the largest moon relative to its planet in the solar system. This close size relationship is unique among dwarf planets.
None. The closest case that we have in our solar system that of Charon, Pluto's largest moon, which about roughly half the diameter of Pluto. Since Pluto is no longer considered a planet the largest moon-planet size ratio is that of our own moon, which is about one quarter the diameter of Earth.
It takes Pluto's moon 6.39 days to circle Pluto.
