I believe A and B

Both Alexander and Aristotle had similar interest in learning from Plato and Socrates, which first Aristotle learned this knowledge, and afterwards Alexander wanted to know as well, getting his knowledge from what Aristotle had already learned. This explanation is probably very vague.

Answer:

A. Alexander the Great

B. Aristotle

Step-by-step explanation:

Aristotle was a Greek philosopher, a student of Plato, and a teacher of Alexander the Great, considered one of the greatest thinkers of all time and creator of logical thinking. Plato, in turn, was a student of Socrates. Thus, we can see that the love of philosophy and the interest in learning was passed from teacher to student, that is, Socrates passed this interest to Plato, who passed to Aristoteles, who passed to Alexander the Great.
