Question

__________ are caused by the rotation of the earth on its axis.

• A. Day and night
• B. Morning and night
• C. Evening and night
• D. none of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A Day and night

• The Earth experiences days and nights as a result of the planet spinning on its axis.
• As the planet spins, the part that is facing the sun experiences day, while it is a night for the part facing away from the sun.
• The alternation between day and night is caused by the rotation of the Earth on its axis.
• If the Earth did not rotate as it does, the day/night cycle would be very different or possibly even nonexistent.
