Answer to Question 1

B
Due to the large crowds of pilgrims visiting Romanesque churches, ambulatories were designed to allow circulation around the apse, without disturbing devotions in progress.

Answer to Question 2

D
Unlike their predecessors, Byzantine artists strove to portray complex religious doctrines and beliefs, not scenes from everyday life. By deemphasizing the human factor, they focused on the eternal world of the spirit.
