Rotation is the spinning of an object on its axis, while revolution is the movement of an object around another object or point. The key difference is the axis of rotation: rotation occurs on an internal axis within the object itself, while revolution occurs around an external axis outside the object.
Some people like to distinguish between the two words, with revolution meaning rotation about the planet's own axis (e.g. in 24 hours), and rotation taking place around the Sun (in 365¼ days).
A planet's period of rotation refers to the time it takes to complete one full spin on its axis, which determines the length of its day. On the other hand, a planet's period of revolution refers to the time it takes to orbit around its star, determining the length of its year.
Mercury's period of revolution around the sun is about 88 Earth days, while Pluto's period is approximately 248 Earth years. The ratio between their periods of revolution is about 1:28. This difference is due to the much larger distance Pluto is from the sun compared to Mercury, causing it to take much longer to complete one orbit.
There as different meanings for rotation and revolution. In this context a revolution can be the turning of body on its axis. In which case one revolution would be the same as one rotation. That is, there would be one rotation in one revolution. A revolution can also be the movement of a body in orbit around another body. For example, the Earth makes roughly 365 rotations during one revolution around the Sun.
Chuch norris controls both.
Rotation is a body spinning on it's own axis and revolution is the body revolving around an external axis.
The difference between the rotation and revoulution is that rotation is the spiinning of the planet on its axis and revoulution is the orbiting of the planet around the sun.

Advancement of transportations and technologies.
The planets rotate around their rotational axes and revolve around the sun.
period rotation: 1 rotation of the earth(1 day) period revolution: 1 year around the sun
