Heliocentrism was the initial breakthrough in the Scientific Revolution which came from Polish mathematician and astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus. His essential argument was that “at the middle of all things lies the sun” and that the earth, like the other planets, revolves around it. Thus, the reason why this theory was so radical from religious perspective was the fact that earth was no longer unique or at the obvious center of God’s attention. This challenged the previous understanding of the Catholic Church that the attention of the entire universe was centered on the earth and its human inhabitants, among whom God’s plan for salvation unfolded.
P.S. I hope this helped as I just read about this in ‘Ways of the World’ by Robert W. Strayer for AP World History :)
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
You forgot to include the options of the question. However, we can say the following.
The sentence from the passage that best supports the conclusion that the author was influenced by Amaterasu is "So when she retreated with her laptop to her room and refused to leave, it created a wave of discontent at the school."
We are referring to the Japanese goddess of the Sun and heaven, Amaterasu. Mythology says that one day, Amaterasu had a fight with her brother. She was very angry and she decided to hide inside or a cave in a mountain, leaving the planet in darkness, creating so much chaos and turbulence. She stayed there for a long time. The problem was that her brother Susanoo had ruined many rice fields and this angered Amaterasu.
So when Lara retreated with her laptop to her room and refused to leave, it created a wave of discontent at the school, in similarity to the referred Amaterasu passage.

At independence, African countries had to decide what type of state to put in place, and between 1950 and the mid-1980s, thirty-five of Africa's countries adopted socialism at some point. The leaders of these countries believed socialism offered their best chance to overcome the many obstacles these new states faced at independence. Initially, African leaders created new, hybrid versions of socialism, known as African socialism, but by the 1970s, several states turned to the more orthodox notion of socialism, known as scientific socialism. What was the appeal of socialism in Africa, and what made African socialism different from scientific socialism?
