This model became known as the 'geocentric' model. ... Ptolemy's model (geocentric) places the Earth at the centre of the Universe. The Sun and planets revolve in a series of circular orbits moving out from the Earth


hope that helps ! :)

Answer:

The heliocentric model does accurately describe our solar system.

Step-by-step explanation:

In our modern view of the solar system, the Sun is at the center, and planets move in elliptical orbits around the Sun. The planets do not emit their own light, but instead reflect light from the Sun.
