The time it takes the Earth to travel around the Sun once is called one year. This is equal to 365.24 days.
The planets have been orbiting the Sun for a very long time. However, Neptune has the longest year, about 165 Earth-years long, and since it was only discovered in 1846, 166 Earth-years ago, it has only made one orbit since it was discovered.
Because it is a satellite - it stays in orbit around Earth. And it is natural - meaning not made by humans.
It was the first artificial (manmade) object to be placed in orbit around the earth. It started the space race between the USA and the USSR.
The verb, for "to move in an orbit", is also "orbit". For example: "The Earth orbits the Sun."The verb, for "to move in an orbit", is also "orbit".

Yes the Earth completes a full orbit once per year.

it holds the planets that orbit around the sun and what keeps the moon in orbit around the Earth
There are many satellites that orbit the earth in a day or less. All of them are man made. The only real satellite that orbits the earth is the moon. That takes 28 days to complete a single orbit.
yes
A complete orbit of the sun by the Earth is a solar year. Many calendars, including the Gregorian (or Western) calendar used by most nations today are based on the solar year, because it allows for the seasons to fall on the same dates each year.
This is not something "made up"; the year is related to Earth's orbit around the Sun. 1 year = one round of Earth around the Sun.

Earth. Earth has one natural satellite, the moon, which is in orbit around the earth. There are around 3000 man made satellites currently in orbit. Jupiter has the most natural satellites (moons), over 60 have been confirmed. It has no man made satellites in orbit around it, but did have one between 1995 and 2003, an orbiter called Galileo.
Because it is a satellite - it stays in orbit around Earth. And it is natural - meaning not made by humans.
The noun orbit is a word for the path taken by one body circling around another body; one complete circle that makes up that path. A noun functions as the subject of a subject of a sentence or a clause, and as the object of a verb or a preposition. Example:The Soviet satellite Sputnik made the first orbit of the earth by a man-made object.
The word Moon is a name given to the natural satellite in orbit around the Earth. We attribute this name to most objects large enough to see in orbit around other planets. In this way Moons and Natural Satellites are one in the same. Artifical Satellites are what we put into orbit around the earth IE GPS Satellites, but are man made.
