Answers
GPT 3.5
Day and night occur on Earth due to the rotation of the Earth on its axis. The Earth spins or rotates on an imaginary line called its axis, which runs through the North and South Poles. It takes approximately 24 hours for the Earth to complete one full rotation.
As the Earth rotates, one half of the planet faces the Sun while the other half remains in darkness. The half facing the Sun experiences daylight, resulting in daytime, while the half turned away from the Sun experiences darkness, leading to nighttime. Therefore, this rotation causes the cycle of day and night on Earth.
