OWL documents and OWL ontologies

 From Guide:
"Once namespaces are established we begin with an assertion that what 
follows is an OWL document.
<owl:Ontology rdf:about="http://www.example.org/wine">
"

I have a problem with this Ontology constructor. Are the following 
documents OWL-documents, Ontologies ?

-------------------- document 1 -------------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>

<rdf:RDF
   xmlns     = "http://www.example.org/food#"
   xmlns:food= "http://www.example.org/food#"
   xmlns:owl = "http://www.w3.org/2002/7/owl#"
   xmlns:rdf = "http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"
   xmlns:rdfs= "http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#">

   <owl:Ontology rdf:about="http://www.example.org/food.owl">
     <rdfs:comment>Consider that the about is my URL</rdfs:comment>
   </owl:Ontology>

   <owl:Class rdf:ID="ConsumableThing" />

</rdf:RDF>
---------------- end of document 1 ----------------

Questions (easy):
a) is this a valid OWL document
b) what is the relation between http://www.example.org/food.owl#ConsumableThing
  and the Ontology of URI http://www.example.org/food.owl ?
c) Does http://www.example.org/food.owl entails
       http://www.example.org/food.owl#ConsumableThing rdf:type owl:Class .

Same questions with <owl:Ontology rdf:about=""> found in the 
Reference document.

-------------------- document 2 -------------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>

<rdf:RDF
   xmlns     = "http://www.example.org/food#"
   xmlns:food= "http://www.example.org/food#"
   xmlns:owl = "http://www.w3.org/2002/7/owl#"
   xmlns:rdf = "http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"
   xmlns:rdfs= "http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#">

   <owl:Ontology rdf:about="http://www.example.org/food.owl">
     <rdfs:comment>Consider that the about is my URL</rdfs:comment>
   </owl:Ontology>

   <owl:Ontology rdf:about="http://www.example.org/mood.owl">
     <rdfs:comment>Consider that the about is not dereferenced to 
anything</rdfs:comment>
   </owl:Ontology>

   <owl:Class rdf:ID="ConsumableThing" />

</rdf:RDF>
---------------- end of document 2 ----------------

Questions:
a) is this a valid OWL document?
a') is http://www.example.org/mood.owl a valid ontology?
b) what is the relation between http://www.example.org/food.owl#ConsumableThing
  and the Ontology of URI http://www.example.org/food.owl?
b') same with mood.owl?
c) Does http://www.example.org/food.owl entails
       http://www.example.org/food.owl#ConsumableThing rdf:type owl:Class .
c') same with mood.owl?
