Answer to Question 1

The demand curves of each monopolistically competitive firm will become more elastic with time and will eventually become perfectly elastic as consumers come to regard the products they produce as homogeneous. This of course leads to a perfectly competitive industry at least in theory.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
