What are the planets orbits?
The planets orbits are the routes or paths that the planets follow around our sun. One orbit is one trip around the sun (one year).
Why do you think planets do not have same orbits?
It's because each planets is a collection of all the debris that was going round in a similar orbit before the planets were formed. So the planets only survived to the present day by having different orbits.
What are the movements of the planets around the sun called?
"Orbit", as in " the Earth orbits the Sun". Another answer is "revolution".
What planets does Mars revolve around?
Mars does not revolve around any planets, it is a planet in its own right. If it did, it would be called a moon. It orbits the sun directly.
What are planets around stars are called?
The collection of planets and their star (primary) are called a solar system. The planets themselves are called "exoplanets." Once we can tell they fit our definition of planet (having cleared their orbits, etc.) we would probably just refer to them as planets.

What is a medium sized rocky object that orbits around the sun?
They are called planets >.>
What are the paths called that planets orbit on around the sun?
They are orbits and they are elliptical in shape. So the answer could be "orbits" or it could be "ellipses".
What evidence do you have that the planets move in elliptical orbits around the sun and not in circular orbits?
Elliptical orbits of the planets around the sun actually match what we observe. Newton's Theory of Universal Gravitation states that planets will move around the sun in elliptical orbits.

It's because each planets is a collection of all the debris that was going round in a similar orbit before the planets were formed. So the planets only survived to the present day by having different orbits.
What orbits around the planets?
moons

What does the earth and planets do around the sun?
it orbits around it
What are the path that planets follow called?
Orbits.
What makes the planets go around the sun?
