Answer 1

Earth's orbit is the trajectory along which Earth travels around the Sun. The average distance between Earth and the Sun is 149.60 million km (92.96 million mi), and one complete orbit takes 365.256 days (1 sidereal year), during which time Earth has traveled 940 million km (584 million mi).

Answer 2

$\large\mathfrak\red{Answer}$

There are eight planets in our solar system. In order of their distance from the sun, they are: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

All the eight planets of the solar system move around the sun in fixed paths. These paths are elongated. They are called orbits.

The earth is the third nearest planet to the sun. In size, it is the fifth largest planet. It is slightly flattened at the poles. That is why, its shape is described as a Geoid. Geoid means an earth-like shape.

• Conditions favourable to support life are probably found only on the earth. The earth is neither too hot nor too cold. It has water and air, which are very essential for our survival. The air has life-supporting gases like oxygen. Because of these reasons, the earth is a unique planet in the solar system.
• From the outer space, the earth appears blue because its two-thirds surface is covered by water. It is, therefore, called a blue planet.
