Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Marginal cost is the opportunity cost of producing one more unit of a good or service. Along a PPF marginal cost is reflected in the absolute value of the slope of the PPF. In particular, the magnitude of the slope of the PPF is the marginal cost of a unit of the good measured along the x-axis. As the magnitude of the slope changes moving along the PPF, the marginal cost changes.
