I am semi-retired and I am taking a self-passed and self-taught Armorers course on Remington 870 Shotguns. I hope to become a part-time light Gunsmith in the future. There are over 60 quiz questions covering this firearm and I have answered most of them. During my study and research I am having some concerns related to some of the following quiz questions. Either I am not sure of the correct answer or I have received conflicting answers. This is the last batch of questions that I am having a problem with. Thanks for your help.

Note #15. What holds the cartridge carrier down when the gun is locked up and at rest?
a) The carrier dog and its spring and plunger
b) The trigger springs forward leg
c) The action bar spring
d) The hammers pivot pin resting on the rear portion of the cartridge carrier

Note #16. If the gun is unlocked, why won't the gun fire? Choose the two best answers.
a) Because the locking block is pushed down, causing the firing pin to hit the lower inside portion of the bolt if struck
