Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

A soil's color is typically related to its physical and chemical characteristics. If the humus content is low because of limited organic activity or loss of organics through leaching, soil colors typically are light brown or gray. Decomposed organic matter is black or brown, so soils rich in humus tend to be dark. Red or yellow soils typically indicate the presence of iron. In moist climates, a light gray or white soil indicates that iron has been leached out, leaving oxides of silicon and aluminum, but in dry climates, the same color typically indicates an accumulation of calcium or salts.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
