Question 1
If the question asks for 1 correct answer then
b. ServletContext

If the question asks for all possible answers then
b. ServletContext
c. HTTPServletRequest.

This is because the method getRequestDispatcher() belongs to the ServletRequest.

Question 2
My answer is
b
a, c, - will give resource not found since there is no web app context.
b - will call the oranges servlet because /fruits/oranges matches the url pattern /oranges
d - will return the default index page.
