Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The three factors that can increase labor productivity are saving and investment in physical capital, expansion of human capital, and discovery of new technology. Saving and investing in physical capital increases the amount of capital per worker and thereby increases workers' productivity. Increasing the amount of human capital means that workers' skills, knowledge, and talents increase, which thereby increases their productivity. And, the discovery and use of new technologies allows workers to produce more goods and services than before, which increases their productivity.
