Answer to Question 1

c

Answer to Question 2

The two kinds of challenges the prosecutor and the defense lawyer can use when
selecting a jury are challenges for cause and peremptory challenges. They differ in
that challenges for cause require that there be legal reasons to challenge to exclude
a potential juror, while peremptory challenges are challenges to exclude a potential
juror for which no reason is stated. The peremptory challenge is bad for the
defendant because the prosecutor may use his peremptory challenges to remove
potential jurors the defendant would like to have on the jury.
