Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Even if a country cannot produce absolutely more of a good, it can still have a comparative advantage. This means that it is relatively better at producing a given good. Thus if it specializes in producing the good that it produces at a relatively lower cost and trades for goods that it can only produce at a relatively higher cost, it will gain from trade.
