Answer 1

For the questions:

1. The vertical cross-section of a cylinder is best described as:
   B. circle
   (When you make a vertical cut through the cylinder, the cross-section will show a circle.)

2. The horizontal cross-section of a cylinder is also best described as:
   B. circle
   (When you make a horizontal cut through the cylinder, you will also have a circular cross-section.)

Therefore, both answers are B.
