Which of the following characterizes Earth's revolution?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Earth's revolution, which is its orbit around the Sun, determines the timing of seasons and length of the year. This is because the tilt of Earth's axis as it orbits the Sun causes different parts of the planet to receive varying amounts of sunlight throughout the year, resulting in seasonal changes.

Option A is incorrect because 24 hours is the time taken for one rotation of Earth around its axis, not revolution around the Sun. Option B is incorrect because it describes Earth's rotation, not revolution. Option C is incorrect because Earth's revolution is counterclockwise when viewed from above the North Pole.
