Hi in science we are doing astronomy and we have to find out a list of things if you could provide a website that might be good for this then THANKS and it would be cool if knew the exact place to find the answer or if you know it, that would be great! because i can't really find anything

Here are the questions:
THE STRUCTURE OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM, INCLUDING:
1) a- Diagram showing position of the sun and the planets with their relative distances from the sun
b- Description of the orbital motions of the planets and an explanation of how gravity works in these motions

INFORMATION ABOUT THE SUN, INCLUDING
2) a- Description of its structure and features such as sun spots, spicules, flares and the solar winds
b- Simple description of thermonuclear fusion and how the sun produces energy

INFORMATION ABOUT THE EARTH, INCLUDING
3) a- Such surface features as oceans, continents, polar caps, atmosphere, mountains and rivers
b- A diagram showing the earths internal structure. Describe the internal features
c- It's orbital motion and axial inclination, stating how each of these affects the seasons of the year
d- The orbital motion of the moon and how this causes tidal effects and the phases of the moon

Thanks in advance
 
Fortunately, all of that information can be found on the site below.

I suggest starting by looking at the article on the solar system.
