Answer 1

1. A

2. D

3. B

4. C

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A- Aristotle thought that the Earth was flat and that anyone who sailed off the edge of the ocean would fall of Earth, this theory of course later got disproved by Kepler and other scientists

2. D- Kepler suggested the modern model of the Solar System because after months and months of looking out the telescope and making models of the Solar System, Kepler finally made the conclusion of the official Solar System.

3. B- Egyptians thought did not move and all the planets, including the sun revolved around it. Later, Kepler disproved this theory with the modern Solar System.

4. C- This is the path that planets follow to revolve around the Sun. People first thought that planets moved in a circular motion but actually they moved in a ellipse because the Sun's gravity pulled planets closer at some parts more than others.
