To determine which two planets would be the closest in diameter on the model, we need to consider the relative sizes of the planets in our solar system.
According to NASA, the order of the planets in terms of increasing diameter is as follows:
1. Mercury
2. Mars
3. Venus
4. Earth
5. Uranus
6. Neptune
7. Saturn
8. Jupiter
Therefore, the two closest planets in terms of diameter on the scale model would be the planets with the smallest diameter difference. From the list above, the closest in diameter would be Mercury and Mars.
Suppose a student develops a scale model of the planets which two planets would be the closest in diameter on the model
