Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Reverse brainstorming or negative brainstorming can reverse the problem or challenge it by asking what causes the problem instead of how to prevent it.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Repetition of the same thoughts with no new ideas or interpretations is a sign of fatigue and indicates that it is a good time to start the incubation period. Switching one's attention provides a necessary respite.
