Your post contains several related but different problems; the rule of the forum is one question per post. A is one problem; B and C together are a different problem; D and E are a third problem; and F is a separate fourth problem. Re-post them separately.

All of the problems are quite basic, with clear instructions; you should be able to work them yourself. If you are really having difficulties with them, then tell us what those difficulties are (as the instructions for making a post tell you to do.)
