Hello. You forgot to add the image. The image is attached below.

Answer:

b. the sun is on the wrong sid of Earth

Step-by-step explanation:

The geocentric model was born from a theory created by Claudio Ptolomeu. This model stated that the earth was positioned at the center of the solar system and that all the stars, planets and even the sun, revolved around it. In this theory the planets, the moon and the solorbitized the earth in the following order Moon, Mercury, Venus, Sun, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.

According to this order we can say that the correct answer to your question is the letter B, since the image does not show any other celestial body on the side of the earth between it and the sun.
