Solution

The correct option is D Mars
This means that a day on Mars is equivalent to 1.025957 days. The seasonal cycles on Mars, which are due to it having an axial tilt similar to Earth's (25.19° compared to Earth's 23.4°), are more similar to those we experience on Earth than on any other planet.
