The Heliocentry Theory deals with the celestial movements and sought the answer to a question intriguing to the scientists of that time: Does the Earth revolve around the Sun or does the Sun revolve around the Earth?

At the time of the Cultural and Scientific Renaissance, in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the Catholic Church still controlled cultural and scientific production, and defended the theory of Geocentrism, that is, affirmed that the Earth was the center of the Universe.

However, the discoveries by means of telescope, of Nicholas Copernicus and, later, Galileo Galilei gave scientific support for the heliocentric theory.

Heliocentrism is the opposite of Geocentrism, that is, these two scientists have come to the conclusion that the Sun is the center of the Universe and that it is the Earth that revolves around the Sun.

For defending the heliocentrismo, Galileo was condemned to death by the Court of the Inquisition, but returned back and said that it believed in the Geocentrismo, which was not true.

Centuries later the Church recognized the heliocentric theory and apologized.

World religions: Shinto

Sedbober [7]

The correct answer is C) The Japanese islands

Explanation:

Izanagi and Izanami are two deities in the Japanese Shinto religion, which are considered to be the creators of the Japanese Islands. This occurred through the union of the two deities. Also, they are considered to be the origin of other deities including the moon, the fire, and the storm. This means, Izanagi and Izanami were the origin of the Japanese islands, and some of the kami of goods, but not all of them as some originated before Izanagi and Izanami. Also, these two deities are not responsible for the origin of the universe because this emerged from the chaos. Thus, these two deities are credited with creating The Japanese Islands.
