Answer:
Earth's Rotation
Earth spins around its axis, just as a top spins around its spindle. This spinning movement is called Earth's rotation. At the same time that the Earth spins on its axis, it also orbits, or revolves around the Sun. This movement is called revolution.

Answer:
Rotation" refers to an object's spinning motion about its own axis.
"Revolution" refers the object's orbital motion around another object.
For example, Earth rotates on its own axis, producing the 24-hour day, that is earth rotation.
Earth revolves about the Sun, producing the 365-day year that is earth revolution.
