Answer:

The sun and planets revolve around the Earth

Step-by-step explanation:

Ptolemy's geocentric model of the solar system was based on the belief that the Sun and planets revolve around the Earth.

About 1,400 years after the time of Ptolemy, the astronomer Copernicus formed a new theory that the Earth, Moon, and other planets revolve around the Sun instead. This new model is called heliocentric.
