Answer to Question 1

D
Earthworks are works of art made for a specific place using natural materials found there, especially the earth itself.

B
During the Renaissance, the study of Greek and Roman achievement brought the idealized body and the contrapposto stance back to Western art. The Dying Slave was one of a series of works Michelangelo designed for a tomb of Pope Julius II and illustrates this style.
