  1. 1. (a) rotation — Rotation on its axis causes day and night.
  2. 2. (b) 24 hours — One rotation takes about 24 hours.
  3. 3. (c) revolution — Movement around the Sun is revolution.
  4. 4. (d) tilt — The tilt of the axis causes seasons.
  5. 5. The rotation of the Earth on its axis.
  6. 6. Because we see different amounts of its sunlit half as it orbits the Earth.
  7. 7. The Earth has two main motions. It spins on its axis — an imaginary line through its poles — and this rotation takes about 24 hours; as it spins, the half facing the Sun experiences day while the half facing away experiences night, so rotation causes day and night. The Earth also moves around the Sun in an orbit, completing one revolution in about a year. Because the Earth's axis is tilted, different parts of the Earth receive the Sun's rays more directly at different points in this orbit. When a region is tilted towards the Sun it gets more direct sunlight and has summer; when tilted away it has winter. So the seasons arise from the Earth's revolution combined with the tilt of its axis.
