an axis is- An imaginary line around which the body rotates. a flege is- On the parallel bar, the gymnast hangs upside down as he/she turns backward and lets go, re-grasping the parallel bar in the hang or front positions. a arab spring is- a move in which the legs come together as the body makes a one-quarter turn (similar to a cartwheel)

What is the difference between axis and orbit?

The axis of a planet is the imaginary pole of a planet in which it rotates. Say for example you have a globe. It is tilted slightly on an angle. That is the axis. The orbit is the place in which a body revolves around another, like all the planets to the sun, or Luna to Earth, etc.

How do you call it when a moon 1.rotates around itself 2.rotates around its planet and 3.rotates around the Sun at the same time it rotates around the planet?

A moon spinning on its axis is called Rotation. A moon going around its planet is called Orbiting. By Definition, all moons must be orbiting a planet. If the same body were on its own (say, if the Moon were orbiting the Sun without the Earth), it would be defined as a Planet. Thus, Question 3 is the same as Question 2. A planet's trip around the Sun is also called an Orbit. Because our Moon's orbit is so slow compared with our trip around the Sun (only 12 orbits per year), the Moon's path around the Sun would resemble a rounded, 12 sided dodecagon, and over several years would trace a path not unlike a Spirograph design.
