Answer to Question 1

A depreciation of a currency takes place due to the mechanics of supply and demand and belongs to a flexible or floating exchange rate system. On the other hand, devaluation is due to the intervention by the monetary authority of a central bank of a country following a fixed exchange rate system. They both result in a lower value of the currency.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
