What does revolve do in Fusion 360?

…

Use the Draw tools to sketch a shape to revolve around the axis:

1. Click Modify | Create Revolve tab Draw panel (Boundary Line).
2. To create a single revolve, sketch a closed loop.
3. To create more than one revolve, sketch multiple, non-intersecting, closed loops.

Can we extrude a line?
