Many historical models of the Solar System were geocentric. Which of these phrases describes a geocentric solar system?

Answer 1

A geocentric solar system is one in which the Earth is considered the center of the universe, and all other celestial bodies, including the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars, revolve around it. Phrases that describe a geocentric solar system include:

• "Earth-centered universe"
• "Celestial bodies orbiting Earth"
• "Earth as the central focal point"
• "Planets moving in circular orbits around Earth"

These phrases capture the essence of the geocentric model, which was predominant before the heliocentric model gained acceptance.
