Which planet's axis is tilted almost 90 degrees to its orbital plane?
Uranus.
The earth would not have seasons if?
Its axis of rotation were perpendicular to its orbital plane
Which planet is most tipped to its orbital plane?
Uranus.
The seasons result from?
The earth's revolution around the sun and the tilt of its axis of rotation relative to its orbital plane.
The planet that is most tipped on it' orbital plane is?
The planet Uranus rotates on an axis that is tipped about 90 degrees to the ecliptic.
Which planet's axis is tilted almost 90 degrees to its orbital plane?
Uranus.
What planet is not in the orbital plane?
Pluto
Which planet is not an orbital plane?
Pluto
Is the orbital plane of your solar system parallel to the rotation of the milky way galaxy?
The orbital plane of a stellar system can be oriented in any way in relation to the plane of the Milky Way Galaxy. Our solar system, for example, is almost perpendicular to the plane of the Milky Way Galaxy.

Which planet is most tipped to its orbital plane?
Uranus.
What is the planet that rotates parallel to its orbital plane?
Uranus.
Which planet spins on a horizontal axis?
Uranus has an axial tilt of 97.86 degrees, which is near horizontal.
Which planet is not in the orbital plane?
I'm pretty sure its Pluto (:
How is Uranu's rotation different from the rest of the outer planet?
Uranus has a different rotation around its axis because it is tilted at an angle. I hope this helps! The angle is much bigger at about 98 degrees. That's the difference. The angle of tilt is away from the perpendicular to the planet's orbital plane, of course.
What is the spinning motion of a planet from east to west called?
It is called rotation, and it is an equilibrium motion that can change over time. In nature, the axis of rotation is never exactly perpendicular to the orbital plane, but is often close to it, a result of the planetary formation process.
