Answer:

Star

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflexive Motion is caused by the gravitational pull that the planet exerts on its parent star

  • As an exoplanet orbits its parent star, it exerts a reflex motion on the star (caused by the gravitation pull of the planet on the star). This causes the position of the host star to oscillate with each orbital period of the planet
