Does the sun have an axis?
Anything that rotates has an imaginary line that it appears to rotate around, and that's what's called the "axis". Since the sun definitely rotates, there's an imaginary line through it that it seems to rotate around, and it's completely proper to refer to that imaginary line as the sun's axis.
Is the sun turning?
The sun does rotate on its axis, but not exactly the way the Earth does, because the sun is made of gas, and different sections of it rotate at different speeds.
Do the planets rotate around the sun?

Why Does the earth rotate on an axis as it revolves around the sun?

Earth's rotation in days?
It takes 24 hours (one tropical day) for the Earth to rotate once about its axis relative to the Sun. It takes about 23 hour and 56 minutes (one sidereal day) for the Earth to rotate once about its axis relative to distant stars.

inersia
Are there any exceptions to the rule that planets rotate with small axis tilts and in the same direction that they orbit the Sun?
Yes, Venus rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets, a phenomenon known as retrograde rotation. Uranus rotates on its side, with an axis tilt of about 98 degrees. These are exceptions to the general rule that planets rotate with small axis tilts and in the same direction as their orbit around the Sun.
What describes the rotation and revolution of the moon and earth?
It takes the moon 27.3 days to rotate on its axis also it takes the number of days for it to have one orbit around the earth. for earth it takes 24 hours for it to rotate on its axis it takes 364 and 1/4 days to take an orbit around the sun.
