i had this on a social studies test, too. i might be wrong, but that's what i put.

There are two principle motions of the Earth. The earth rotates around on its axis. The earth is also known to revolve around the sun.
Earth revolves around the sun and rotates on its axis.
Two motions of the Earth are rotation and revolution. Rotation is Earth's spinning on its axis, causing day and night, while revolution is Earth's orbiting around the sun, creating the changing seasons.
The two motions that Earth makes are rotations and revolutions.
The Earth is in orbit round the Sun, but also the Sun is moving round the centre of our galaxy, and of course we follow along.
The two principal motions of Earth are rotation and revolution. Rotation refers to the spinning of Earth on its axis, which causes day and night. Revolution refers to Earth's orbit around the sun, which takes approximately 365.25 days to complete.
The two main motions of the Earth are rotation and revolution. Rotation refers to the Earth spinning on its axis, causing day and night, while revolution is the Earth's annual orbit around the Sun, creating the change in seasons.
Rotation and Revolution.
There are more than two motions but the basic ones are:Revolutions Known as days that are very close to 24 hours in lengthOrbits of the sun that take close to 365.25 days
Rotation about its axis gives day and night. Orbiting the sun gives us the year.
The two major motions of Earth as it travels through space are rotation, which is its spinning on its axis causing day and night, and revolution, which is its orbit around the Sun causing the changing of seasons.
