Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

Slope aspect leads to different microclimates. In the Northern Hemisphere, for example, north-facing slopes have microclimates that are cooler and wetter than south-facing slopes. Some plants thrive on the sunny south-facing slopes, while others prefer the conditions on north-facing ones. The steepness and shape of slopes also affect the amount of time water is present there before draining downslope.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
