They don't. Well, Venus does; it spins the opposite direction relative to all the other planets. Uranus doesn't spin the opposite direction; instead it basically lies on its side and spins.
"Why", though ... that's a tricky one unless you can just accept "because they do". Some things just are. There isn't any deep philosophical reason that they should have the axial tilts that they do, they just have them.
What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the bright star that appears in the eastern sky in the morning and the western sky in the evening from Toronto Canada?
Venus. and its actually a planets not a star. Sirius is the brightest star in the sky, but seasons depend if you can see it no matter which hemisphere you are located on.I believe Vega is directly overhead, near zenith, and is also very bright in any location and season. IN the summer, and winter, Rigel in Orion is very bright, but overall go for Sirius. Chachi
Where are the highest elevation located in Africa?

Does the sun rise in the east or west on the isthmus of panama?
It doesn't. It rises in the East and sets in the West, on the Earth. The Earth rotates towards the East. So, obviously, the Sun then appears to move across the sky towards the West.
Why does some stars seem to wobble around in the sky.especially the one south east of the big dipper?
The description of "wobble" really doesn't paint a picture that's clear enough to suggest what you're actually seeing. If you see anything in the sky that appears to move with respect to stars, then that object is either the sun, or else it's not a star. It could be a planet, an asteroid, a comet, a meteor, the Earth's moon, or an artificial satellite. "Southeast of the Big Dipper" also doesn't help. The Big Dipper ... and every other pattern of stars ... either rotates half-way around the pole or else crosses the entire sky, every night.
Why does hot desert exist on every continent on earth except Antarctica?
earth rotates from west to east. so first the sun rays will fall on the eastern side of earth. as a result of high temperature , low pressure is created . low pressure will result in rainfall. as these moisture laden clouds will move ,there will be many obstructs on the way . so the western part will remain dry and hence we will find most deserts on the western sides of the continents.this is also because the winds blow from east and become dry by the time they reach in the western side.
What planet rotates east to west?

From East to West, it is the only planet in our solar system to do so. All the others rotate West to East. Comments: That's not quite true. Uranus is another one. Here's a bit of pedantry: It depends how you define the North pole of a planet. There are two ways to do that, unfortunately. On one definition, Venus actually rotates from West to East. However, nearly everyone ignores that and says Venus rotates from East to West.
What planet spins the other way than earth?
There really isn't one. But, Uranus rotates on its side. It still rotates in the same direction, just on its side.
