Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Rent seeking is lobbying and other political activity that seeks to capture the gains from trade. When imports are restricted, some people gain from the restrictions. Rent seekers, such as domestic producers of import-competing goods or services, lobby the government to impose import restrictions because restrictions allow the rent seekers to gain revenue and/or profit.
