Question on priority queue and linked lists

So I'm studying for my final and I've answered about 30 of the 40 review questions but I'm having trouble on two of them:

1.Explain why, counter-intuitively, a Priority Queue ADT cannot be implemented by wrapping around a Queue ADT, nor vice-versa.

2.Distinguish between a deep copy and a shallow copy of a linked list. How are they different in their implementation? In what situations would you want one or the other?


I don't really know how to answer #1 at all and for #2, I know what the difference between a deep copy and a shallow copy is but I'm not sure in what situations I would want to use one over the other...

Can anyone please help? Thanks
