The Sun's gravitational force controls all the orbits of planets and other objects that orbit the Sun (dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, meteors).
An object without a force acting on it travels in a straight line, But the Sun's gravity causes each object to accelerate towards the Sun, as described by Newton's second law: force = mass x acceleration.
The acceleration causes any fast-moving object to curve towards the Sun, as Newton discovered using calculus. This is a permanent process with the object in a stable orbit unless disturbed by a collision of some sort.
Planets orbit stars.
We certainly hope not! If Mars were to be disturbed from its orbit to approach the Earth so closely, it would probably destroy the Earth as well. No, Mars will remain in its orbit and the Earth will remain in OUR orbit, and with any luck, the planets will never meet.
Planets remain in their orbit because the sun's gravity is pulling them toward the sun, while inertia is pulling them away from the sun, thus creating an ellipse around the sun resulting in an orbit.
Moons orbit around planets. They are natural satellites that are held in orbit by the planet's gravitational pull.
All planets orbit around a sun.
It explains why the planets remain in in orbit around the sun. Also, why moons orbit their planets. It also explains why humans remain on earth.

Planets remain in orbit due to a balance between their forward motion and the gravitational force pulling them towards the center of the orbiting body, usually a star like the sun. This balance allows planets to continuously move in a curved path without either escaping or falling into the central body.
Planets orbit stars.
No. Planets orbit suns, while moons orbit planets. Planets do not orbit planets.

The Sun has no moons. Moons orbit Planets > Planets orbit the Sun.
The planets do not orbit the Earth, they orbit the sun.
Planets remain in their orbit because the sun's gravity is pulling them toward the sun, while inertia is pulling them away from the sun, thus creating an ellipse around the sun resulting in an orbit.
Moons orbit planets. Planets orbit stars. Some stars orbit other stars, or orbit their mutual center of gravity. Stars orbit the center of the galaxy. Galaxies may orbit the center of the "galactic group".
Yes all planets have a orbit
No. The planets orbit the sun.
