Mars is a smaller planet, but not the smallest (Mercury). Mars is about fifty percent smaller than our earth. the size of the planet go in the order of Mercury, Mars, Venus, Earth, Neptune ,Uranus, Saturn, and Jupiter.
It's small compared with Jupiter and the other gas planets, but is a good sized rocky planet compared with mercury or mars.
terrestrial
Asteroids are smaller than planets. A few of the asteroids are fairly large; Ceres, for example, is a "dwarf planet" that's bigger than Pluto. But many of the asteroids are a few miles, or a few dozen miles, across. That isn't very big, compared to Mars or Earth.
Because of Earth's size, and considering it as one of the smallest planets, it has a weak gravity compared to the OTHER planets. Most planets have greater gravity because of their size. Earth has a stronger gravity compared to mars, mercury, and venus.
Of the inner planets, Mars has the most moons. Mars has 2 moons compared the Earth having 1 moon and Venus and Mercury having none.

its Density
Mars is very similar to Earth. Mars' year and day are very similar to Earth compared to other planets.
Because it has planets orbiting it (such as Earth, Jupiter and Mars)
terrestrial
Mars is the second smallest planet. Only Mercury is smaller.
