The "kick" or bass drum, and the snare drum are obvious examples of percussion instruments which also exist in a marching band line up, and toms are not too distantly related to "tim-toms", "quads" or the tenor drums.
The snare drum is probably the most important part of a drum kit, and is often nicknamed "the steering wheel", partly because of its size, shape and position, but also because of its importance as the primary control of the drum kit.
There are many different types of snare drum, which are used in different circumstances, but a drum kit snare such as the one pictured here, is typically 14 inches in diameter and around 6 to 8 inches deep, with a medium to heavy batter (top) head tuned fairly tightly.

 Drum & Drum Kit. Renaissance Workshop Company (RWC) is the world's largest manufacturer of Early Music Instruments ...
Drums have evolved slowly throughout the ages and one change that can clearly be seen is the different method of tensioning the skins between medieval and Renaissance drums.
The medieval drum is rope tensioned directly onto thick goat skin heads and has a single snare on the beaten head, whilst the Renaissance drum applies the rope tensioning through counter hoops which spread the forces enabling the use of thinner calf skin heads.
Medieval Drum Kits: The diameter of the drum is fixed but the builder determines the final depth of the drum up to 50cm and hence whether it is a side drum or a long drum.
