What all have orbits with the sun as focus?
In our solar system, all celestial bodies that are in orbit around the Sun have the Sun as one of the foci of their elliptical orbits. This includes planets, dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, and other small solar system bodies. According to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, these orbits are not perfect circles, but elliptical, with the Sun located at one of the two foci. Thus, any object bound by the Sun's gravity follows this orbital pattern.
