 (ii) Revolution.......................

Answer 2

The movement of the earth around the sun is known as Revolution

Option (ii)

EXPLANATION:

• Other than rotating on its axis, the Earth travels around the sun, as well, in a path known as an orbit. This motion of the Earth round the sun along its path/orbit is known as a revolution.
• The time that the Earth takes for one trip around the sun is known as a period of revolution. The period that the Earth takes to revolve around the sun is around '365.24 days or 1 year'.
• The 0.24 days is precisely why every four years February month has 29 days. Moreover, the 'Earth's orbit' is not a perfect circle, as people presume. Rather the 'Earth's orbit' is somewhat elliptical in shape
