Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Anticlines are upfolded arches of rock, whereas synclines are downfolded troughs of rock. The oldest rocks are in the core of an anticline and the outer edges of a syncline. Domes are broadly upwarped rock that produces a roughly circular-oval structure. Basins are the broadly downwarped structural equivalent. The oldest rocks are in the middle of a dome and the outer perimeter of a basin. Both anticlines and domes are upwardly deformed; however, anticlines are arches, sort of a 2D deformation, and domes are more like a helmet-shaped, 3D deformation.
