No. Most of the moon's features were created by asteroid impact.
Erosion due to meteorite impacts and seismic activity has slightly modified the moon's surface, but there isn't significant evidence to suggest that erosion has created large numbers of valleys on the moon. Most lunar valleys are believed to have been formed by either ancient lava flows or tectonic activity.
The surface of the Moon is rocky and covered with craters, mountains, and plains. It has no atmosphere, so there is no weathering or erosion like on Earth. The surface is also covered in a layer of fine, powdery dust called regolith.
Meteorite and asteroid impacts would cause erosion of the moon's surface. Man will also have had an almost minuscule impact as well due to the moon landings although this will be so tiny as to be virtually unmeasurable!
Erosion on the Moon's surface is primarily caused by micrometeorite impacts, solar wind, and thermal cycling. There is no significant erosion on the Moon due to factors like water, wind, or ice that play a major role in erosion processes on Earth.
Weathering and erosion do not occur on the Moon due to lack of atmosphere and liquid water. However, there is some deposition due to impact events from meteoroids and micrometeoroids that create craters and affect the surface.

Yes, there are valleys on the surface of the Moon, primarily formed by faults, impacts, and volcanic activity. These valleys are known as rilles or grabens and are found in various regions across the Moon's surface.

Asteroids and gravity create the surface features on the moon.
The moon's surface gets smooth through various processes such as impact cratering, volcanic activity, and erosion by micrometeorites. Over time, these processes help to reduce surface roughness and create smoother areas on the moon's surface.
Not as you are used to on Earth surface. Erosion is caused mainly by water and air movement, which do not exist on the Moon's surface. However, seismic activity and impacts from asteroids may cause effects not dissimilar to erosion.
No, the surface of the moon is not smooth and flat. It is heavily cratered and contains mountains, valleys, and other geological features. The surface is also covered in fine lunar dust known as regolith.
No, but it does have deep/large creators. Valleys are created by glaciers and a geologically active crust, neither of which the Moon has. Creators from meteor and comet impacts make up the majority of the Moon's surface features.
Because the moon has neither liquid water or an atmosphere on its surface, there is very little weathering or erosion. Any weathering or erosion that does place is caused by repeated meteorite impacts, which break up and scatter the rocks and dust on the Moon's surface.
