Read the following passage and choose the option that indicates the correct answer to each of the questions

Aspirin’s origins go back at least as early as 1758 In that year, Englishman Edward Stone noticed a distinctive bitter flavor in the bark of the willow tree To Stone, this particular bark seemed to have much in common with

“Peruvian Bark”, which had been used medicinally since the 1640s to bring down fevers and to treat malaria Stone

decided to test the effectiveness of the willow bark He obtained some, pulverized it into tiny pieces, and conducted experiments on its properties His tests demonstrated that this pulverized willow bark was effective both in reducing

high temperatures and in relieving aches and pains In 1763, Stone presented his findings to the British Royal Society

Several decades later, further studies on the medicinal value of the willow bark were being conducted by two Italian scientists These chemists, Brugnatelli and Fontana, determined that the active chemical that was responsible for the medicinal characteristics in the willow bark was the chemical salicin, which is the active ingredient of today’s aspirin
