Answer to Question 1

Marginal cost eventually rises as output increases because of diminishing returns. If each additional unit of a variable input adds less and less to total output, it must require more of that variable input to produce each additional unit of output. This means that each additional unit of output must cost more to produce.

Answer to Question 2

Economic growth occurs when the total output in an economy increases.
