I have a headache now. It is the same as every other orbit. It is the calendar which is imperfect. Approximately 365 1/4 days per orbit.

How does the earth move when its leap year?
The Earth moves the same in a leap year as it does in any other year. We have leap years because Earth takes about 365.25 days to go around the sun, not 365 days, so a leap year makes up for that in order to keep our calendars correct.
What is the actual time your planet Earth takes to go around the sun?
the geological calender has only 365 days in a year and 366 in a leap year.the reason why there is an extra day in a leap year is it takes the earth 365.25 days to orbit once. so if you multiply 0.25 by 4 you would end up with one. this one is added as an extra day at the end of February after every four years.

A complete orbit around our sun on earth is counted as a year. Every planet has a ring going around the sun and the planet follows it. For other planets we measure there orbits by earth years. e.g. 3.2 Earth Years
How is leap year related to the time it takes earth to revolve around the sun?
The Earth revolves around the Sun once in about 365.25 days. A normal year has only 365 days. So, every four years we have a leap year of 366 days to make up for the missing 0.25 days. There are other slight adjustments to make the fit even better.
