Venus has a "retrograde" rotation, compared to its orbit around the Sun. Unlike the other major planets, Venus rotates in a slow clockwise direction (from east to west).
Scientists speculate that Venus may have collided with another large object during its early formation. Similar theories have been advanced for the formation of our Moon.
Venus rotates on its axis more slowly than any other planet, making it have a very long day.
Uranus is the slowest rotating planet of the solar system
Actually this is still not fully understood. One theory involves Venus being hit
by a large object. Another theory says the dense atmosphere is responsible
in some way.

Venus rotates on its axis slower than any other planet.
All of them, though some more slowly than others.
The length of a planet's day depends on the speed of its rotation. Mars rotates slightly more slowly than Earth does, and so it has a slightly longer day.
Saturn has more moons than any other planet in our solar system
In astronomy, "revolution" refers to the motion of a planet in an orbit. This is in distinction to "rotation" which is the spinning motion of a planet or other body. Thus, the Earth rotates on its axis while it revolves around the Sun.

Venus rotates on its axis slower than any other planet.
Venus (about once a year). Not Mars, it rotates almost as fast as Earth.
All of them, though some more slowly than others.
Venus rotates on its axis slower than any other planet.
The length of a planet's day depends on the speed of its rotation. Mars rotates slightly more slowly than Earth does, and so it has a slightly longer day.
because its farthest from the sun
Venus' day is long because it rotates slowly on its axis. One day on Venus is 243 days, which is longer than one year on Venus, which is 225 days.
Jupiter rotates on its axis every 10 hours.
Yes it does, but much more slowly.
Saturn has more moons than any other planet
