To answer question 5, it can be determined that Scotland has retained its own parliamentary system (option c). To confirm this, one could research the current political system in Scotland and compare it to the political system in England to see if they are separate. Additionally, for option a, one could find out if Scotland has its own distinct system of laws or if it follows the laws of England. By process of elimination, if the answer to option a is yes, then option c would be the correct answer.

Regarding question 6, the answer is indeed option b. One could learn about the climate patterns in the Nordic region, such as the influence of winds and ocean currents, through reliable sources such as climate studies or geographical textbooks. By understanding that the North Atlantic Drift brings warm currents to the region, it becomes clear that these warm currents moderate the weather and prevent the coast from freezing. The other options can be ruled out by examining the specific climate characteristics of the Nordic region.
