Solid State Physics (direction plane, volume & basis vectors of primitive unit cell)

Hello experts!!

Q#1) Write down the family members of {110} plane in a cubic crystal.
Attempted Answer) I think it should be (110),(101),(011),(-1-10),(-10-1),(0-1-1). Is this right?

Q#2) Describe a method to construct the Primitive unit cell of an FCC crystal.
Attempted Answer) First kindly tell me here asking to construct Primitive unit cell of an FCC, so Primitive unit cell of an FCC and Wigner Sietz Cell are same thing?

Q#3) Show that volume of Primitive unit cell of a BCC is \[\frac{{ a}^{ 3}}{ 2}\].
Attempted Answer) I don't know how to start. :-(

Thanks in advance.
