Answer to Question 1

Answer: B

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The breaking requirement was to protect the sanctity of a closed home, and it was a breaking to open an unlocked door or window, but not entering through an open door or partially opened window. The forced opening, even turning of a doorknob is sufficient. Generally, a person who enters with permission cannot be charged with a burglary. The reason is that the breaking must be a trespass, and actual or constructive entry is required, even with minimal intrusion (opening the window and reaching through to steal a purse). Many jurisdictions have held that the initially lawful entry may change in the event a person forms the intent to commit a crime once inside. The status of such person then ripens into one of a trespasser and the lawful entry now entails an unlawful purpose by that person. Discuss with students the philosophy of the courts and the interest protected by the law. (E.g., an outside worker is given permission to use an inside bathroom, but chooses to wander into another room and steal something. The social guest is found in the host's bedroom, going through dresser drawers.)

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
