Answer to Question 1

Trademarks are important to both businesses and consumers. Often, the terms trademark or mark are used to refer to both trademarks and service marks. Technically, though, a trademark is affixed to goods in interstate commerce A service mark identifies services, not products. For example, Burger King is a service mark.

An example of a certification mark would be the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval. A collective mark is used to identify a group, such as the Rotary or Boy Scouts.
