Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

The equinoxes mark the beginning of the spring and fall, all locations on the Earth between the poles have equal daylengths; and it marks the sunrise/set at the poles. The solstices mark the beginning of the summer and winter, are when the subsolar point is at its maximum latitude; and when either the Arctic (June solstice) or Antarctic (December Solstice) Circles are completely within the lit side of the circle of illumination.
