Consider a planet identical to Earth except that it has no moon.

1. **How long is the complete day-night cycle on this planet?** I've heard that having no moon would speed up the planet's rotation, resulting in a day-night cycle of 6 hours. Is this true?
2. If so, then **what would the conditions be so that this planet could have a 24-hour day-night cycle without a moon?** (For example, would having a larger mass make it rotate slower?)
3. **What would the seasons look like on this planet?** Would there be seasons at all? I've heard that having no moon means that there would be no changing seasons. Instead, certain areas of the planet would be locked in a single season, and that season would vary depending on the area.
4. **Would the temperature of this planet be different compared to Earth because of its lack of a moon?**
5. **Are there any other notable things** (*besides* the tides, the darker nights, and the lack of eclipses) **that should be mentioned?**
