Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

If Jupiter had never existed, its gravity would not have prevented asteroidal material from accreting into a single planet outside of Mars. Comets would not have been flung into the Oort cloud or completely out of the solar system to as great a degree (though the outer jovian planets may have performed this function).
