Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Household production refers to goods and services people produce for themselves. It is not clear whether the ratio of household production to gross domestic product has increased or decreased. More women working outside the home has decreased the ratio of household production to GDP, but the technological advances at home have allowed people to produce more household production in less time.
