D. Heliocentric model



Answer :

The ancient Greek view of the solar system is described by:

C. Geocentric model

In the ancient Greek view of the solar system, the Earth was believed to be at the center of the universe, with the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars orbiting around it. This geocentric model was proposed by influential Greek philosophers and astronomers such as Aristotle and Ptolemy.

The geocentric model was the prevailing view of the solar system until the heliocentric model, which places the Sun at the center with the planets, including Earth, orbiting around it, was proposed by Copernicus in the 16th century.
