The heliocentric model proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus in the 16th century positioned the Sun at the center of the solar system, with the planets, including Earth, orbiting around it. This model replaced the geocentric model which had Earth at the center.
In previous models, the moon either formed concurrently with Earth in its accretion disk, or was captured when its orbit crossed that of Earth's and was captured in Earth's gravitational field.
The Geocentric model
That would be the moon. We've never thought of it that way ... the only object whose status didn't change between the geocentric and heliocentric model. Thanks for showing it to us.
Theres the Geocentric model, with earth at the centre and the planets and sun revolving around us. Then there is the Heliocentric model, with the sun at the centre and all of the planets including Earth revolving about it. The second model is the correct model, though for many years people assumed incorrectly that the Earth was at the centre of the universe.

The most widely accepted model of the Earth's layers is the compositional model, which consists of the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core. This model is supported by seismic evidence and is consistent with our understanding of the Earth's chemical composition and physical properties.
The egg is like a model of the layers of the Earth. (see layers of the ... The egg shell will represent the thin outer layer of the Earth called the crust.
There is no geocentric model of the earth!
A model of the Earth, which probably focuses on the different layers of the Earth.
A sphere is the best model for the Earth, as it closely represents the planet's actual shape. While Earth is not a perfectly round sphere due to its rotation, it is an oblate spheroid, meaning it is slightly flattened at the poles and bulging at the equator.
A globe is a model of the Earth.
The true model of the earth would be called an oblate spheroid. The earth is close to spherical, but bulges a little around the middle (equator). There is also a term for the theoretical 'average earth' if you will, that is the best possible fit between mathematical model and the actual physical planet. It is called the geoid. Surface altitude is calculated for a given spot based not on the physical earth, but on the location of the theoretical geoid at that spot.
a 3D scale model of earth
A sphere could be used as a three dimensional model of the earth.
