Let a regular polygon with $p$ vertices be given, where $p$ is an odd prime number. At every vertex there is one monkey. An owner of monkeys takes $p$ peanuts, goes along the perimeter of polygon clockwise and delivers to the monkeys by the following rule: Gives the first peanut for the leader, skips the two next vertices and gives the second peanut to the monkey at the next vertex; skip four next vertices gives the second peanut for the monkey at the next vertex ... after giving the $k$-th peanut, he skips the $2 \cdot k$ next vertices and gives $k+1$-th for the monkey at the next vertex. He does so until all $p$ peanuts are delivered. [b]I.[/b] How many monkeys are there which does not receive peanuts? [b]II.[/b] How many edges of polygon are there which satisfying condition: both two monkey at its vertex received peanut(s)?
