Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The evidence for a warm, wet early Mars is mostly morphological. Martian channels and what appear to be lake deposits formed during the first 700 million years of Mars's history, indicating that Mars likely had running surface water at this time. Mars has cooled over time because of its low mass. This would have allowed for greater atmospheric loss through escape through the top of the atmosphere, and also would have led to a shut-down of the carbonate-silicate cycle that results from the smaller geothermal energy reservoir associated with a less massive planet.
