I guess that's:
1. Rotation on its axis (About 24hrs period).
2. Orbital rotation around the Sun (1 year period).
3. Orbital rotation around the center of our Milky Way Galaxy's centre (1 cosmic year period).
4. Movement within the Local Group of galaxies.
5. Moving along with the expansion of the Universe.
Probably this question is mainly about numbers 1 and 2.
So the answer is "two".
It's possible that you could include the "precession" of the Earth's axis also, as a major motion.
Earth goes under millions of motions - itself, the pull of the moon, orbiting the sun, which orbits a galaxy where the stars change position all the time, and the galaxy is still stretching. Now why millions? Because everything has its own gravity, no matter how small, and can affect in even the slightest bit to our orbit. So, I should say billions. Now, for those who think that answer is wrong, take this one then: Relative to the sun, 2.
There are two different types of motions of the earth. Rotation is where the earth spins on its axis in a counter-clockwise direction. Revolution is the motion that causes the earth to revolve around the sun. It is also done in a counter-clockwise direction.
Two motions of the Earth are rotation and revolution. Rotation is Earth's spinning on its axis, causing day and night, while revolution is Earth's orbiting around the sun, creating the changing seasons.
The three major motions that the Earth undergos in space are Revolution(Orbit), Rotation, and Precession
The three motions of Earth are rotation, revolution, and precession. Rotation is Earth spinning on its axis, causing day and night. Revolution is Earth orbiting the Sun, creating the change in seasons. Precession refers to the slow wobbling of Earth's axis over a period of about 26,000 years.

The two motions that Earth makes are rotations and revolutions.
That's caused by the motions of Earth-Moon system around the Sun and Moon around the Earth.
There are two principle motions of the Earth. The earth rotates around on its axis. The earth is also known to revolve around the sun.
Aurora Borealis. Toilets flushing in vortexes.
The sun would always stay there, and never go
convection currents in the mantle provide the basic driving forces for plate motions.

In surface waves, the combination of transverse and longitudinal motions produces circular motion. This circular motion results in the characteristic rolling or swirling movement of surface waves as they propagate through a medium such as water or the Earth's crust.
Earth revolves around the sun and rotates on its axis.
