It does NOT orbit on its axis, but rotates on its axis. It takes 24 hours, one day, to make one complete rotation.

However, It does ORBIT the Sun. It takes the Earth 365.25 days, one year, for make one complete orbit of the Sun. Whilst it is making this orbit it is also rotating on its axis, as above.
