Use a diagram to explain why you have night and day?

Rotation of the earth causes day and night. The earth rotates about its axis. when the earth rotates, places facing the sun experiences daylight while those on the other side of the earth that does not experience sunlight experiences darkness or night (NOTE: the earth is a sphere and therefore all places on the earth cannot receive sunlight at the same time). As I said before, the earth rotates and as such, after sometime, places that once experienced daylight experience darkness or night as it moves away from the sun when the sun rotates. likewise places that once experienced night experience day because of the same reason. For better comprehension, see diagram below SITUATION-A SITUATION-B
