Answer:

1. The movement of Earth around its axis is called Rotation: Imagine a line passing through the center of Earth that goes through both the North Pole and the South Pole. This imaginary line is called an axis. Earth spins around its axis, just as a top spins around its spindle. This spinning movement is called Earth's rotation. ... This movement is called revolution.

2. The movement of Earth around the Sun is called Revolution: Earth spins around its axis, just as a top spins around its spindle. This spinning movement is called Earth's rotation. At the same time that the Earth spins on its axis, it also orbits, or revolves around the Sun. This movement is called revolution.

In the Northern Hemisphere the vernal equinox falls about March 20 or 21, as the Sun crosses the celestial equator going north. In the Southern Hemisphere the equinox occurs on September 22 or 23, when the Sun moves south across the celestial equator.

4)During the Northern Hemisphere's summer solstice—which always falls around June 21—the Southern Hemisphere gets its winter solstice. Likewise, during the Northern Hemisphere's winter solstice—which falls around December 22—the Southern Hemisphere gets its summer solstice.

5)The path of the Sun across the celestial sphere is very close to that of the planets and the moon. Because of its relation to eclipses, that path is known as the ecliptic. ... The orbit of the Earth around the Sun.
