Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

A version control software tracks versions of the code, acting like a library with checkout procedures to prevent developers from writing over one another's files. To work on a program, the developer checks it out of the library. Other developers can still view it and see who has it, but they can't make their own changes. When the developer has finished, the code is checked back into the library as the latest version, and another developer can then check it out.
