Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Total specialization would be used when you know that there are no other subtypes of a supertype other than those defined. For example, if we only had undergraduate and graduate students but no other types of students, then we would use total specialization. However, if there were students other than graduate and undergraduate, such as just a general student, then we would want to use partial specialization.
