Question

What part of the geocentric model was incorporated in the heliocentric model?

Answer 1

Astronomer Cladius Ptolemy believed that the earth was the center of the solar system and all other planets rotated around it.

Approximately 500 years ago, another astronomer,  Nicolaus Copernicus  theorized that the planets’ orbits should be plotted with respect to the Sun.

Hence, the role of Earth changed to a planet status, however, all planets were proven to revolve around a fixed point being the Sun.
