Solution

The correct option is A day, night
The rotation of earth is primarily responsible for the occurence of day and night.
This happens because the movement of earth on its own axis makes different portions of earth to face the sun, thus causing day and night.
Part of the Earth facing the sun has a day time and the part of Earth away from sun experiences night time.
