Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The Volunteer's dilemma is a situation in which a single person can provide a public good. Because everyone benefits when the good is provided, and therefore property rights are not well defined, individuals face tension between their desire to see the good provided and and their desire to have someone else provide the good. This tension and the strategic behavior it causes create the possibility that no one will provide the good.
