Earth rotation on its axis is called rotation.
Earth orbits the Sun at an average distance of 149.60 million km, and one complete orbit takes 365.256 days, during which time Earth has traveled 940 million km.
revolution:Revolution is the term used to describe the path (or orbit) of Earth through space. Earth's revolution around the sun is responsible for seasonal change and leap years. This path is shaped like an ellipse and has points when Earth is closer to the sun and farther from it.
The earth rotates about an imaginary line that passes through the North and South Poles of the planet. This line is called the axis of rotation. It rotates about this axis once each day i.e. approximately 24 hours. The direction of rotation is eastward.
