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.

Oh, that's a lovely question, friend. The closest planet in size to Earth in our solar system is Venus. It's sometimes called Earth's "twin" because it's similar in size, but it has a much different atmosphere filled with thick clouds. Remember, each planet has its own unique beauty, just like every brushstroke brings uniqueness to a painting. It's wonderful to appreciate the variety in our solar system!
Our own Sun (also called Sol) is the nearest star to planet Earth, the next nearest is Proxima Centauri.
Earth is the planet that is third closest to the sun.Earth, our home planet. It is located between Venus and Mars. Here are the planets in order from the Sun:MercuryVenusEarthMarsJupiterSaturnUranusNeptune
Venus is the solar system object most similar to Earth in terms of mass and density. Venus is similar in size and composition to Earth, making it the closest "sibling" planet to our own.
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.
Obviously, every planet. Every planet has its own moon. If you are talking about the moon we see at night, that moon is the moon orbiting Earth. So Earth is the closest to Earth's moon, Jupiter is closest to Jupiter's moon, and so forth.
Tides respond to lunar gravitation. As Earth rotates on it's own axis, when the face of planet Earth is closest to the Moon, the more active ebb and neap tides will behave.
Most believe the opposite with the exception of our own system because statistically with the size of the universe it would be unlikely that the Earth be the only inhabited planet
As I suspect you likely want to know "What is the CLOSEST planet to Earth", the answer is Venus. At it's closest point (inline with the Earth in relation to the sun) it is 38 million kilometers away. As we're just now starting to consistently be able to find and discover planets outside of our own solar system, the jury is still out as to which might be our true next closest neighbor, outside of our own planetary system. We've also yet to discover a truly 'human habitable' planet outside of our solar system but that discovery will likely be made within the next ten to fifteen years with the next generation of space telescopes, if not sooner.
