Answer to Question 1

False
RATIONALE: Of the 83 political divisions (called subjects) of Russia, 26 are autonomies (nationality- based units): 21 autonomous republics, 4 autonomous okrugs (areas), and 1 autonomous oblast (region). The amount of real autonomy, or self-rule, varies somewhat between these three categories, but republics are the most autonomous, having the right to establish their own official languages and constitutions, and to pass laws that conflict with those of the federal government.

Answer to Question 2

The rule of 70 because the doubling time can be calculated based on a multiple of 70 years.
