Solution

The similarity between the revolutions of the Moon and Earth is that both are produced by gravity. The Moon revolves around the Earth due to the gravitational pull of the Earth, and similarly, the Earth revolves around the Sun due to the Sun's gravitational pull. The other options are incorrect because the orbits are not the same size, they do not both revolve around the Sun, and they do not take the same amount of time.
