Yes, though to an unequal extent. For Earth's part, it has enough attraction on the moon to keep it orbiting continually around us. For the moon's part, it has enough attraction on the earth to cause tides, and to a lesser extent the precession of the equinoxes.
Gravity is the force responsible for pulling the moon and Earth toward each other. This force keeps the moon in orbit around the Earth and causes tides on Earth.
Yes, the Earth and Moon both exert a gravitational force on each other. This force is responsible for the Moon orbiting around the Earth.
because the moon has an orbit that goes around the earth which is a path that the moon takes so it will not bump into any other planets
Earth experiences neap tides when the gravitational pulls of the sun and moon partially cancel each other out. Neap tides occur during the first and third quarters of the moon when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other relative to Earth.
The faithful companion of the moon is the Earth. The Earth and the moon are gravitationally bound to each other in a relationship known as a binary system. The moon orbits the Earth, influencing tides and providing stability to Earth's rotation.
Earth and moon pull on each other, with equal force. That's how gravity works. As the result, earth and moon both revolve around their mutual center of mass ... the point where the pivot would have to be in order for the earth and moon to balance each other at opposite ends of a see-saw. Since the earth's mass is about 80 times the moon's mass, the point around which the two bodies orbit happens to be inside the earth, so somebody who's watching from far away would swear that the moon orbits the earth while the earth stands still.
Newton's law of universal gravitation states that every object with mass attracts every other object with mass. This law applies to Earth and the Moon, causing them to be attracted to each other and creating the gravitational force that keeps the Moon in orbit around Earth. The force of gravity between Earth and the Moon is the reason for phenomena like tides on Earth.
4 billion years ago, the earth collided with another planet, that planet fell apart and the debris of that planet stayed in an orbit around the earth. Those pieces of debris attracted each other and they builed up the moon like that

It does, actually. Every mass attracts every other mass by gravity. If the Moon were not attracted to the Earth by gravity, the Moon would go sailing off into space all alone. The Moon does not get closer to the Earth because the Moon is in orbit around the Earth.
They are in a line with Earth in the middle.

The moon circles around the earth; the earth circles around the sun.
