Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Rings are formed around the stem by the xylem. The xylem carries water and nutrients up into the plant from the roots. Each year a new ring is added and the old ring dies. This ring is called the annual ring and is used in determining the age of the plant or tree.
