Answer to Question 1

Reliability is a prerequisite for validity. Thus, a test may be reliable but not valid. However, a test cannot be valid but not reliable.

Answer to Question 2

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water.
