Answer:
an imaginary straight line around which an object spins. Sentences: Earth spins on its axis once every 24 hours. Earth's axis goes from the North Pole through Earth's center to the South Pole and is tilted.

Answer:
Imagine a merry-go-round at an amusement park or on a playground. The ride moves in a circle as the people riding it rotate around the ride's axis point.
Earth also rotates on an axis point. An axis is an imaginary line an object turns around. This imaginary line runs directly through the object's center, from the north to the south poles. Although we can't feel the Earth spinning, it makes one complete turn, each day, around its own axis.
Earth's Axial Tilt
Have you ever leaned back in your chair, carefully balancing on the back two legs? Your position in the chair is tilted, assuming you don't fall backwards. The Earth has a similar position in space, which scientist describe as a tilt. That's right - rather than sit straight up, the Earth leans to one side. Scientist believe that Earth's tilt is the result of our planet having collided with another large object. This large crash not only knocked our planet off kilter, it dented a large hole on the surface of Earth, and the debris that flew into space later formed our Earth's moon.
Earth sits at a 23.5 degree angle from vertical, as shown in the picture below. Other planets also have their own unique tilts, or positions in space. Uranus has the greatest tilt in the solar system, practically laying on its side at 97 degrees!
Earth
A spinning top appears stable as it quickly spins in circles, but the slower it moves, the more you can see it wobble back and forth. Earth also has a very slow wobble as it spins on its axis. This wobble happens because the axis is slowly changing directions. As the axis of the Earth wobbles, it slowly makes a circle. In fact, it is so slow that it takes nearly 26,000 years to complete one circle.
