Explanation:

Question 5
Brief Explanations

Johannes Kepler formulated the laws of planetary motion, including the fact that planetary orbits are elliptical. Tycho Brahe (note: the name in the option has a typo, likely "Tycho Brahe") was an astronomer who collected data, William Harvey studied the circulatory system, and Ptolemy proposed a geocentric model with circular orbits.

Brief Explanations

Galileo is credited with improving the telescope for astronomical observations, which helped his discoveries about celestial bodies. A gyroscope is for measuring orientation, a periscope is for viewing over obstacles, and an astrolabe was used for navigation and astronomy but not invented by Galileo for his key discoveries.

b. Johannes kepler
