3.The path of the planets around the Sun is circular in shape.
4.The Sun is located at the center of the of the planets' circular orbits.

Answer 1

Elliptical

Step-by-step explanation:

It is elliptical because earth passes around the sun and the circle more motion

Answer 2

1.The Sun is located at one of the foci of the planets' elliptical orbits.

2.The path of the planets around the Sun is elliptical in shape.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per Kepler's law of planet motion we know that all planets revolve around the sun in elliptical path in such a way that position of Sun must be at one of the focii of the path

So all planets are in elliptical path always

Position of sun is always at one of the focus

so correct answer will be

1.The Sun is located at one of the foci of the planets' elliptical orbits.

2.The path of the planets around the Sun is elliptical in shape.
