Does the earth move around the sun the moon or mars?

The earth moves around the sun it is yearly orbit of the sun. The earth and the moon actually move around each other, since they both orbit what is called the 'barycenter', the center of gravity of the earth-moon system. The barycenter is beneath the earth's surface, and moves in such a way that it is always in line with the moon's center of gravity and the earth's. This gives earth a slight wobble in its yearly orbit of the sun. The earth does not move around Mars.


How does the earth sun and moon move around each other?

The Earth orbits around the Sun in an elliptical path due to gravitational attraction. Simultaneously, the Moon orbits around the Earth in an elliptical path also due to gravitational attraction. These combined movements create the changing positions of the Sun and Moon in our sky.

No, the moon orbits around the Earth, not the sun. This is due to the gravitational pull between the Earth and the moon. The moon's orbit around the Earth is what causes its phases and affects tides on Earth.
