Best Answer

There are eight major planets and several minor ones. Most of the planets have moons and there are many thousands of asteroids plus comets and other debris.

With the exception of the moon none has any significant effect on the earth. Though some small meteors do collide with the earth still very few make a lasting impact.

Should a larger one do so the damage could be catastrophic but the chances are very small.

Yes, they revolve around the sun in their orbits. Their orbits depend on their weight, which would determine the weight of gravity in individual cases, and the planets are controlled by their own gravity and the centrifugal and centriputal forces always in effect.
