Answer to Question 1

Screws are classified by the materials they hold, the shape of their heads, or the type of tool needed to
turn them.



Answer to Question 2

A screw has threads that bite into the material it fastens. A nail does not have threads.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
