It also explains that Earth has two movements: its revolution around the Sun over 365 days which causes seasons, and its rotation on its axis every 24 hours leading to the cycle of day and night. Additionally, it provides details on how meridians and parallels are used to measure longitude and latitude locations on Earth.
