The correct answers describing Aristotle's and Ptolemy's models of the solar system are:

  1. geocentric - Both Aristotle and Ptolemy proposed a geocentric model, placing the Earth at the center of the universe.
  2. circular motions of planets - Their models also described the motions of planets as circular around the Earth.

So the two correct answers are “geocentric” and “circular motions of planets.”
