Answers
Answer:
a-23.5 degrees
Instead, Earth has seasons because our planet's axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees relative to our orbital plane – the plane of Earth's orbit around the sun. The tilt in the axis of the Earth is called its obliquity
b- rotation-Earth's rotation is the rotation of Planet Earth around its own axis
revolution-Image result for define revolution of earth
Revolution is the term used to describe the path (or orbit) of Earth through space

Answer:
C one answer
Explanation:
When a year is having 366(leap) days instead of 365(normal) days means one extra day that is 366 then it is called the leap year. Leap year comes after 4 years. There is one simple trick to find out the leap year that is: The last two numbers of the year should be divisible by 4. The extra day comes on 29 February. In normal case there 28 days in the month of February but in the case of the leap year it has 29 days.
The following are the leap years list:
2020
2024
2028
2032
2036
2040
2044
2048
2052
2056
So on........
