No, it's the earth's rotation on it's own axis that causes night and day. The Earth is constantly spinning so when one side of the earth is facing the sun that side has sunlight where as at the opposite side of the earth it is night. So while it is day in America in China it's night time. However, Earth's revolution around the sun causes the different seasons. The earth is tilted so that one section (hemisphere) is allways closer to the sun than the other. This relates to the nothern and Southern Hemisphere. When it is summer in America, the nothern part of the earth is titled towards the sun and the opposite when it is winter.
Earth's rotation on its axis causes day and night. Earth's revolution around the sun causes the seasons.
False. Earth's path or orbit around the Sun is called its revolution, not rotation. Rotation refers to the spinning of Earth on its axis, which causes day and night, while revolution refers to the Earth's journey around the Sun, which takes about 365.25 days to complete.
Mainly, this is caused by Earth's rotation around its axis. (Earth's revolution around the Sun results in one less day per year, than the number of rotations.)
Phases of the moon are caused by the revolution of the moon around the Earth and the revolution of the Earth around the sun. As long as the moon revolves around the Earth as it does, the lunar cycle from full to new to full again will take about 29½ days. We will be having about twelve and a third moon cycles every year until these facts change.
The word "rotation" is used when something turns around its own axis - which is inside the object. In the case of Earth, this happens once a day (more precisely, every 23h 56m). The word "revolution" is used when an object goes around another object. In the case of the Earth, the other object would be the Sun; it takes Earth a year to go around once.
No, the Earth's revolution around the sun is not related to the rising and setting of the sun on a daily basis, which is caused by the Earth's rotation on its axis.

Earth's rotation on its axis causes day and night. Earth's revolution around the sun causes the seasons.
The Earth's revolution refers to its yearly orbit around the Sun. This movement takes approximately 365.25 days to complete, resulting in the changing of seasons and the passage of time on Earth. The term "annual" is used to signify that this revolution occurs on a yearly basis.
Earth's orbit (revolution) around the Sun is not circular - it's an ellipse. However, this ellipse is fairly close to a circle.
There is no planet with a revolution period of 164 Earth days. Neptune, however, has a revolution period of 164.8 Earth years.
Venus has the closest period of revolution to Earth, taking approximately 225 Earth days to complete one orbit around the Sun.
The two principal motions of Earth are rotation and revolution. Rotation refers to the spinning of Earth on its axis, which causes day and night. Revolution refers to Earth's orbit around the sun, which takes approximately 365.25 days to complete.

Each revolution of the Earth results in one complete day.
Day and night are caused by the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Earth spins, different parts are either facing towards the sun (daytime) or away from it (nighttime), creating the cycle of day and night.
