It does NOT orbit on its axis, but rotates on its axis. It takes 24 hours, one day, to make one complete rotation.

However, It does ORBIT the Sun. It takes the Earth 365.25 days, one year, for make one complete orbit of the Sun. Whilst it is making this orbit it is also rotating on its axis, as above.

It depends if it is an orbit around it's axis or an orbit around the sun. Heres the answer for both: Sun Orbit: 687 Earth Days Axis Orbit: 687 Earth Days The funny thing is that their both still the same :)

How does the planet move all the way round and not earth?

around what? if its earth then it would rotate on its axis and and if ur talkin bout the revolution then if it is before earth (Venus, Mercury) then it wouldn't orbit around earth they would only orbit the sun and Venus would orbit mercury. and all of the planets after earth (Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, others) they would orbit the sun and all the planets before them. but all planets rotate on their axis but it may take shorter or longer time to rotate once than how long it takes for earth to rotate on its axis once.
