Both Venus and Mercury rotate very slowly on their axis compared to the other planets. Both Mars and Earth take around 24 hours (mars slightly longer) but Mercury takes 58.6 days for one rotation and Venus takes 243 days to make one rotation.
All of the planets rotate.
They rotate do to the gravitational pull of the sun... The rotate themselves due to their inner core rotating which is also caused by gravity
A planet travels slowest at its apogee.
Inner planets. are inner & outer planets. are outer
the inner planets are sometimes called Terrestrial Planets
Since the inner planets are composed mainly of rocks, they are heavier, and rotate slower.

Inner and outer planets have some things that are in common but there mostly way different. For instants they both orbit the sun. On the other hand the outer planets are made mostly by gas, that's why they are called the gas giants. The inner planets are mostly made by rock and dust. The inner planets are called Terrestrial planets and the outer planets are called Jovian planets. The inner planets are closer to the sun, have more density, they have less moons, there about the size of Earth, and they rotate slowly. The outer planets (Jovian Planets) are farther from the sun, they have less density, they have more moons, they are large, about the size of Jupiter, they rotate rapidly, and they have more mass. These planets are alike because they both orbit the sun.
All outer planets have a gaseous atmosphere and are larger than planets the inner planets it also takes them longer to rotate the sun they are typically colder and have more moons.
A planet travels slowest at its apogee.
none of the inner planets

Venus has the slowest rotational period- 243 days to rotate once.
Yes. Jupiter and so are the other outer planets are called "Gass Giants". Though they're massive, they can rotate faster than the inner planets.
The inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. They are "inner" because the are the first 4 planets from the Sun.
After the inner planets you get the outer planets.
