The moon was formed by a collision with earth, where Mercury was made from left over material from the Sun like the other planets.
Mercury has no satellites.
Because there's nothing similar in how they're formed (or captured).
Because the mass of the planet - its weight and size - create different degrees of gravity.
31 Crateris was once mistaken to be a moon of Mercury but it is in fact a star about 1750 light years away. Mercury does not have any moons. See related link
Jupiter has more than 60 moons because its strong gravitational pull allows it to capture and retain smaller objects in its orbit. These moons come from different origins, such as being captured asteroids or remnants from collisions with other objects. Jupiter's large size and distance from the Sun also contribute to its ability to have such a diverse collection of moons.
Mercury has no satellites.
No satellites have been discovered yet in orbit around Mercury. As of now, the answer to the question is zero.
Because its simple all the planets moons are asteroids except for Earths it was part of Earth at one time and ours is different because we rock.
because of the rotation of the earth and the moons orbit

Because they all formed separately, in different environments. It would be far more startling to discover that two moons, or two planets, were identical; they would almost certainly have to have been manufactured.
cuz The moon's apparent "shape" changes because as it orbits the Earth, the light from the sun hits it at different angles causing observers on Earth to see "different shaped moons". The moon really is always a sphere.
No because Mars has no moons
because the moon always moves
