    Q1: Consider the natural numbers ${0, 1, 2, \ldots}$ together with the addition. Do they form a group?

    A1: No, because the inverses are missing.

    A2: No, because the identity element is missing.

    A3: Yes, it’s a group.

    A4: No, it’s not even a semigroup.

    Q2: Consider the integers ${\ldots, -1, 0, 1, 2, \ldots}$ together with the addition. Do they form a group?

    A1: No, because the inverses are missing.

    A2: No, because the identity element is missing.

    A3: Yes, it’s a group.

    A4: No, it’s not even a semigroup.

    Q3: Let $(S, \circ)$ be group with identity $e$. What is always correct?

    A1: $e^{-1} = e$

    A2: $a \circ b = b \circ a$ for all $a,b \in S$.

    A3: $a \circ e = e $ for all $a \in S$.

    A4: $a^{-1} \circ a = a$ for all $a \in S$.
