Answer to Question 1

The size of fat particle does impact the final product. Plastic fat is recommended to allow for gluten formation and flakey biscuits. Oil will coat the flour particles and inhibit gluten formation.

Answer to Question 2

Over-kneading results in biscuits that have a rounded top and tougher texture.
