Answer to Question 1

A stationary front occurs where the flow on both sides of a front is neither toward the warm air mass nor the cold air mass but, instead, is nearly parallel to the line of the front. An occluded front occurs when an active cold front overtakes a warm front. Complex weather results from this occurrence.

Answer to Question 2

C
