Step-by-step explanation:

The Earth is a planet which is a tern used to describe large bodies that revolves around a star.

The star around which the Earth revolves or travels around is the Sun, and the path of the Earth's motion is known as the Earth's orbit. The time it takes the Earth to travel round the Sun is 365 1/4 (365.25) days

The Moon is a natural satellite of the Earth, therefore, the Moon travels or revolves round the Earth. The Moon is about 27% the size of the Earth and it takes the Moon about 27.3 days to travel around the Earth.
