Why is a year different on each planet?

A year is different on each planet because it depends on the time it takes for the planet to complete one orbit around the sun. This orbital period varies based on the planet's distance from the sun and its orbital speed. For example, a year on Earth is 365 days because that is how long it takes for Earth to orbit the sun, while a year on Mars is about 687 Earth days because Mars takes longer to complete its orbit.
