Answer 1

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The answer is B. Latin, and in English it means to refer to something that feels out of place or illogical in a certain context. The "non-" prefix means not, it is a negative word. Sequitur refers to the sequence or follows/following. Originate means the beginning, it's origin. Therefore it literally means something that does not come from its origin. More simply put, it can be an answer given to a question that does not at all relate to the question, there is no logical place for that answer or statement to come from what was given.
