Does the moon orbit Jupiter?
Not our (the Earth's) moon but Jupiter has lots of its own moons that orbit it.
What force keeps the moons of Jupiter in orbit around the planet?
The moons stay in orbit around Jupiter by the force of gravity.
What does ganymede orbit?
Ganymede orbits Jupiter, as it is one of Jupiter's moons. It follows an elliptical path around Jupiter, completing an orbit roughly every seven days. Ganymede's orbit is influenced by the gravitational pull of Jupiter and the other moons in the Jovian system.
How do the moons stay in orbit with jupiter?
The moons stay in orbit around Jupiter due to the planet's gravitational pull. Gravity is the force that attracts objects with mass towards each other, keeping the moons in orbit around Jupiter as they continuously fall towards the planet but also travel sideways at a fast enough speed to avoid crashing into it.
Does any planet orbit Jupiter?

What planets suround Jupiter?
Jupiter has 63 confirmed moons in orbit around it. No planets are in orbit around it, since they would then be classed as moons. The planets in orbit either side of Jupiter are Mars and Saturn.

Do Jupiter's moons orbit it?
Yes. if they did not they would not be Jupiter's moons.
What does ganymede orbit?
Ganymede orbits Jupiter, as it is one of Jupiter's moons. It follows an elliptical path around Jupiter, completing an orbit roughly every seven days. Ganymede's orbit is influenced by the gravitational pull of Jupiter and the other moons in the Jovian system.
Why doesn't Jupiter orbit its moons?
Jupiter doesn't orbit its moons because it has a greater mass than them.
