An equinox period is related to the sun's position in relation to the equator, not daily return. Ante - meridian time refers to morning time. A sidereal day is based on the Earth's rotation relative to the stars. A year is the time for the Earth to orbit the Sun. A solar day is the time it takes for the Sun to return to the same place in the sky after the Earth has rotated once.

Answer:

a solar day.
