A solar system is a collection of objects that orbit a star or group of stars. In most solar systems, a central star (or stars, like a binary pair for instance) provides the mass to keep the system in place, and also the light and heat for the smaller planets, moons, asteroids, and comets that are orbiting. The Sun together with the group of celestial bodies that are held by its attraction and revolve around it, or a group of celestial bodies revolving around any star.

The solar system is our planets, revolving around a solar power (sun). We kind of depend on each other.

The sun and everything that orbits it ( asteriods , planets , comets , etc. )
It is the biggest system which comprises of planets revolving and rotating in their orbit, where sun is at the center n other planets like Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars etc, rotates around sun in an elliptical orbit. Till date there is only one solar system known n seen, but it is estimated that there would be many such solar system in whole universe.!!
