Explanation:

A P E X

The object that a satellite revolves around is the central body of the system. (C)

For example:

- - The central body of the solar system is the Sun.

- - The central body for TV satellites, GPS satellites, weather satellites, and the International Space Station is the Earth.

- - The central body for Phobos and Deimos is Mars.

This should be a pretty easy question to answer by elimination, when you notice that "Orbit", "Period", and "Rotation" are not "Bodies".
