Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

According to medical sociologist Deborah Gold, sibling relationships in later life generally fall into five groups, the last two of which are negative:
 Intimate siblings are close and consider each other to be best friends and close confidants. They help each other no matter what and are in frequent contact.
 Congenial siblings feel close and see each other as good friends, but they feel closer to a spouse or an adult child. They contact each other weekly or monthly but give help only when it doesn't conflict with their obligations to their spouse or children.
 Loyal siblings are available because of family bonds rather than affection or closeness. Disagreements don't erode the siblings' ties because they believe that family ties are important whether or not family members like each other.
 Apathetic siblings are indifferent, rarely think about each other, and have little contact with each other.
 Hostile siblings are angry and resentful and have had negative ties for a long time. They spend considerable time demeaning each other and arguing about the past, inheritances, and so on.
