    1. To load a selection you first make your selection of whatever you want, then go up to the select tab and then click save selection. A new panel then pops up allowing you to save a selection with a name and it stays saved for you so that later on you can go back and get that same selection just the way to saved it. This can definitely be helpful when your working with multiple shapes that needs selections and to save time you can instead of selection each shape over and over you can save the selection once to use it later on.
    2. The easiest way of filling the selection with a background or foreground color is by selecting it with a selection tool like the magic wand and then click alt+delete for the foreground color or control+delete for the background color.

      I’m a bit confused on your answer to question 2, there are some spelling errors. But you can just use the magic wand tool to select a color and fill it with foreground by using alt/option delete and background by using control/command delete.
