Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

Answer to Question 2

A trademark is any word, name, symbol, or device used to identify the source or origin of products or services and to distinguish those products or services from others. All businesses want to be recognized by their potential clientele and use their names and logos to enhance their visibility. Trademarks also provide consumers with information. For example, consumers know what to expect when they see a Starbucks coffee shop. Think of how confusing it would be if any coffee shop could use the name Starbucks.
