Answer to Question 1

F
Ratio scales have an absolute zero. This is what distinguishes a ratio scale from an interval scale because zero in a ratio scale has meaning in that it represents an absence of some concept.

Answer to Question 2

F
Ratio scales do this. Interval scales do capture information about differences in quantities of a concept, however.
