Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Venus has a thick cloud cover that prevents us from seeing the surface with visible light. Radar can map the surface, but its longer wavelength means the resolution is worse. Mars' atmosphere is thin enough that we can see surface detail from Earth. Also, we have landed several spacecraft on Mars, some of which have traveled over the surface. The few spacecraft that made successful soft landings on Venus were very short lived.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
