    The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: " c. Planets orbit in elliptical patterns; a planet's orbit covers equal areas in equal amounts of time; planets' orbits are shorter or longer depending on their distance from the Sun."

    Here are the following choices:

    a. Planets orbit in elliptical patterns; the bigger the planet, the more gravitational pull; a planet's gravitational pull is stronger or weaker depending on its distance from the Sun.

    b. A planet's orbit covers equal distances in equal amounts of time; the speed of a planet's orbit depends on its distance from the Sun; the bigger the planet, the slower it moves.

    c. Planets orbit in elliptical patterns; a planet's orbit covers equal areas in equal amounts of time; planets' orbits are shorter or longer depending on their distance from the Sun.

    Statement A is incorrect as the gravity of a planet is not dependant on the distance from the Sun, Statement B is correct however it is not derived as a result of Kepler's astronomical calculations, Statement C is based on Kepler's 3 laws of planetary motion.
