Answer 1

D. Leap years add an extra day to February because the Earth takes longer than 365 days to orbit the sun.

Answer 2

D leap years add an extra day to February because the earth takes longer than 365 days to orbit the sun.

A person weighing 140lb will be weightless on the moon.
Earth's rotation and revolution do not occur at the same length. Note: rotation brings about day and night while revolution brings about seasons.
