Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The core design principle of the Internet is its hourglass structure. As long as bits are transmitted using the Internet's suite of standardized protocols, new applications for the top end and new communications technologies for the bottom can be easily incorporated. For example, the Internet was first launched using phone lines. Over time, new wiring and wireless inventions have led to increased speed, better connectivity, and larger coverage of the Internet. At the top of the hourglass, the Internet's open architecture has led to new applications such as the World Wide Web, streaming video, e-commerce, VoIP, and multiuser 3D games.
