Answer 1

The three statements that describe Aristotle's model of the solar system are:

1. Earth is at the center.
2. The stars are attached to the outermost sphere.
3. Each planet is attached to a crystalline sphere.

Aristotle's model was geocentric, meaning the Earth was believed to be at the center of the universe, with celestial bodies (including stars and planets) attached to concentric spheres that rotated around the Earth.
