I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. The statement that describes the heliocentric theory, as stated by Copernicus would be that the Sun was at the center of the universe. He developed a computational system for a partially heliocentric planetary model, in which the planets orbit the Sun, which in turn orbits the Earth. 

As per the heliocentric theory, the Sun was at the center of the universe.

Nicolaus Copernicus (1473–1543) was a mathematician and astronomer who proposed that the sun was stationary in the center of the universe and the earth revolved around it. This theory was called The heliocentric theory. The theory was published in his book De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (On the Revolutions of the Celestial Spheres), just before his death in 1543. It was considered a major event in the history of science, triggering the Copernican Revolution and making a pioneering contribution to the Scientific Revolution.
