How do planets get moons?

Most moons are formed at the same time as their planets, and are made of similar materials. After the formation of the sun, the leftover protoplanetary material eventually clumped together and formed planets. Any material left over from the formation of the planets later formed the moons. The Earth's moon, however, is believed to have been formed by a collision with a NEO (Near Earth Object), such as an asteroid, that scientists call Theia. The collision sent billions of tons of material into space and reaccreted into a spherical shape. They speculate that it was the size of Mars and hit Earth about 4.5 billion years ago while the Earth was still relatively young.

Tell how snowdrifts and sand dunes are formed in similar ways. Then describe differences in how they are formed.?

Similar: Both are formed by wind. Different: Sand dunes are formed by deposition. Snowdrifts are formed by weathering. ++ They are both formed by deposition of a granular material by the wind. Weathering is totally different - it is the breakdown of rock (or other materials) by the weather, biological agents, etc. - though sand is a product of the weathering of rock.
