the answer is true for revolution
the answer is false for rotation
explanation:Earth rotates once in about 24 hours with respect to the Sun, but once every 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4 seconds with respect to the stars.Earth's rotation is slowing slightly with time; thus, a day was shorter in the past.

Answer:
The statement is true.
Explanation:
- The rotation of the Earth is the movement of the planet on its own axis.
- A revolution is the movement of the earth around the sun.
- In rotation, the earth's center does not change position, but in revolution, the earth's center changes position around the sun on a constant basis.
- The Earth rotates and revolves simultaneously.
- Every year, on the third of January, our planet is closest to the sun at perihelion, and on the fourth of July, it is furthest from the sun at aphelion.
- One year on Earth is equivalent to one rotation around the sun by the Earth. One rotation of the earth around the sun takes 365.24 days.
- One day on Earth is equivalent to one revolution of the earth on its own axis. On Earth, a whole day is precisely 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4 seconds. As a result, it takes the earth this long to complete one rotation around its own axis.
