As observed from the earth, the sun appears to move in an approximate circular orbit. For the motion of another planet like mercury as observed from the earth, this would

not be true because mercury is influenced by forces other than gravitational forces

not be true because the force between the earth and mercury is not inverse square law

not be true because the major gravitational force on mercury is due to the sun
