I have these questions for my Economics class but I read and read the book and can't find the answer

A. Social Security payment to eldery citizens
B. welfare benefits distributed to the the poor
C. Outright grants from government to recipients
D. payments to clerical workers hired by government

In the above question, I believe the answer is D but not completely sure, thanks for the help.
and the other questio is

-The immediate effect on GDP of Ibrahim's Purchase of a government bond is
A. a decrease in consumption because Ibrahim has less money to spend
B. an increase in government spending
C. An increase in investment
D. a decrease in investment because less money is available for him for further investment

in that one I'm between A, C and E but then again I'm not 100% sure.. Thank you for your help
