Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The concentric-zone model is a kind of bull's-eye model with the city's central zone at the heart. The next zone out is called the zone in transition, an area being invaded by business and light manufacturing. The third zone is inhabited by workers who need to live reasonably close to where they work. The fourth-residential-zone consists of higher-class apartment buildings and single family homes, and the outermost ring is the suburban or commuters' zone.
