Hi donnyshira!
Glad I could help. Feel free to post back if you have any other questions...

Hey!

I think it would be best if you tried answering these questions yourselves. You will understand the topic better and when it comes time for a test, you will not have to learn everything last minute. Feel free to use website such as wikipedia, google, and ask.com.

Hope I helped!

Thanks for the help!
