The planet that requires 59-60 Earth days to complete one rotation on its axis is Mercury. Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and has a slow rotation speed compared to its orbit around the Sun, resulting in a longer day-night cycle. This is due to its proximity to the Sun, which causes gravitational forces to affect its rotation.

Why have 365 days in a year?
That is how long it takes for the earth to fully complete a rotation around the sun
Why are there 24 hrs in one day?
because it takes 24 hours for the earth to do a complete rotation around its axis
What is the order of the planets of least to greatest in rotation?
Mercury,Venus,Earth,Mars,Saturn Pluto(not considered a planet),Jupiter,Uranus and Neptune.
Can 30 second be a minute?
No. 30 seconds is always half a minute. However, on other planets, since they rotate at different speeds, time is counted differently to how it would be on Earth. (If one rotation on the planet's axis is "a day", but they rotate quicker than the Earth does, a minute will be fewer seconds that it would be on Earth). You may find a planet where 30 seconds = a minute, however I don't know which one that could be off hand.
How do the average lengths of the different plant species vary or approximate the length of each individual specimen?
because, of the rotation of earth on its rotation .
