Yes!

All planets that revolves around their own axis on their orbit around a sun experience the effect of day and night, light or dark.

Why is there daytime and night time on mars?

Daytime and nighttime on Mars occur just like on Earth, due to the planet rotating on its axis. Mars takes slightly longer to complete one rotation, about 24 hours and 39 minutes, so its day is just a bit longer than Earth's. The atmosphere on Mars is also much thinner than Earth's, which affects the distribution of sunlight on the planet.


Why is there day time and night time on mars?

Mars has day and night for the same reasons that Earth has day and night. Mars, like Earth, rotates on an axis. That means that the Mars is spinning like a top. As the planet spins, half of it is facing the sun, and the other half isn't. So the half that is facing the sun experiences daytime, and the other half has nighttime. The planet spins around so the the same half is facing the sun every 24.6 (almost 25) hours. This is the same way that we see night and day, except Earth spins a little faster, so we have a complete day and night every 24 hours.
