What movement of the planet makes one day as a unit of time?
It is the rotation of the planet one complete revolution that determines the length of a day.
The spin of a planet or moon as seen from above a planets pole is called its?
A planet's rotation on its axis determines the length of its day.
What planet length in day is close to the length of earths day?
Mars.
What determines a planet's length of a month?
The concept of a "month" doesn't really apply to any planet except the Earth. On Earth the month is closely connected to the Phases of our Moon. A month is not like a "day" or a "year" which depend on times of rotation and revolution of a planet.
What is the relationship between the length of a planet's day and the rate of planet's rotation?
Yes; the faster the planet rotates, the shorter its day will be.

A planet's rotation on its axis determines the length of its day.
What determines the length of an entire year on a planet?
The time it takes for any given planet to make one complete revolution around its sun determines the length of its year.
What is the responsible length of one day?
The planet's rotational period is the only thing that determines the length of one day. (mostly - it also is dependent on how fast the planet orbits the sun. If it orbits quickly, the "day" will be measurably less than the time for one full rotation.)

What planet's length of its day is close to the length of Earth's day?
Mars
What planet length in day is close to the length of earths day?
Mars.
What cycle determines a day on a planet?
one rotation of its sun

What type of planetary motion determines the length of the day?
spinning
What property of a planet determines its length of year?
The time it takes to go around its solar systems sun.
What is the relationship between the length of a planet's day and the rate of planet's rotation?
Yes; the faster the planet rotates, the shorter its day will be.
