    D. the Moon's is similar to Earth's crust, while Mercury's is similar to the entire Earth.

    Explanation:

    Density of Mercury is 5.4 g/cm³

    Density of Moon is 3.34 g/cm³

    Density of the Earth's crust varies from 2.7 g/cm³ to 3 g/cm³

    Density of the Earth is 5.51 g/cm³

    From the above data, it can be concluded that the density of the Moon is similar to that of density of the Earth's crust while Density of Mercury is similar to the entire Earth's density.

    Thus, option D is correct.
