Answer to Question 1

Division of labor becomes more complex as populations rises and agricultural production intensifies.

Answer to Question 2

Firms can easily expand or contract; households cannot. Individuals are usually tied to a firm by labor and tied to a household by kinship. Households produce goods for consumption by members; firms produces goods for profit. Firms usually wish to increase their size indefinitely; households cannot do this.
