Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

In a small cluster the lower mass means there is a smaller gravitational force pulling the galaxies together, which results in a lower collision speed. The greater mass in a large cluster results in a higher collision speedhigh enough that the individual galaxies don't slow down enough to merge.
