Answer The earth rotates around its vertical axis. The axis is an imaginary line passing through the centre of the earth. Its two ends on the surface are called North and South poles The Earth completes one rotation in 24 hours.

2:The Earth's axis is vertical, meaning it runs up and down. (A rolling log, on the other hand, has a horizontal axis, meaning it runs sideways.) The Earth's axis runs from the North Pole to the South Pole. It takes the Earth 24 hours, or one day, to make one complete rotation around this invisible line: Earth's rotation is the rotation of planet Earth around its own axis. Earth rotates eastward, in prograde motion. As viewed from the north pole star Polaris, Earth turns counterclockwise. ... The South Pole is the other point where Earth's axis of rotation intersects its surface, in Antarctica.

Answer: A. Inner Core

Explanation: The inner core is solid, the outer core is liquid, and the mantle is solid/ plastic.
