Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Screams, and any sound that we make, are waves of gas atoms and molecules. We perceive sound when these waves of gas particles strike our eardrums and cause them to vibrate, but it takes many trillions of such particles to move them noticeably. In interstellar space, where the gas density is extremely low, there are too few (if any) collisions with our eardrums for us to hear sound.
