Answer to Question 1

The maximum potential increase in production is either one more hut or 25 more coconuts.

Answer to Question 2

Demand is generally more elastic in the long run. In the long run, people have time to make adjustments to changes in price and find alternative products.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
