Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

Civil law is concerned with disputes between private parties, while criminal cases are often considered crimes against the government and are government-initiated.
Civil cases have punishments including monetary damages and/or injunctive relief, while criminal cases often have an incarceration component in their punishment.
Both arose out of the need to maintain a safe and structured society and promote societal norms.
