Natural Gas Water Heater Short

Please can someone answer these housing inspection questions?
1) Which appliance(s) may use natural gas?
1. Water Heater
2. Clothes Dryer
3. Cooking Range
4. Central Heat
2) What is the most likely problem that cold weather causes?
1. Plumbing leaks
2. Roof Leaks
3. Buckling Siding
4. Window breakage
3). What causes a GFI receptacle to trip?
1. A power failure
2. A current difference between the hot and neutral line.
3. A short between the neutral and the ground line.
4. A circuit overload
1: all of the above, all of them are manufactured
2:Not sure on this one but 3 usually happens in the heat, best bet I would say 2, unless they mean cold weather below freezing, then 1 makes sense.
3: #2 overloads are handled by the circuit beaker, Power failure wouldn’t do anything, and there shouldn’t be a difference between your ground line and your neutral line.
