(D) Pluto

Correct Answer : Venus
Question Asked : SSC Combined Matric Level (Pre) Exam 2000
Explanation : Like the other planets in our solar system, Venus rotates about its axis. However, Venus is the only planet that rotates from east to west instead of west to east. This means, that if we lived on Venus, the Sun would appear to rise in the west in the morning, and set in the east in the evening. Venus rotates in what is called retrograde motion.
