Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

The most common color test for bloodstains is the Kastle-Meyer test. This test is based on the fact that enzymes called peroxidases accelerate the oxidation of hemoglobin in the blood. When a bloodstain is subjected to this test, oxidation of the hemoglobin in the blood produces a deep pink color.

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