Sentences meaning

0Hi Teachers02br
02br
00I want to know whether these sentence are correct and the meaning too02br
02br
001. There are pictures circulated in internet everyday. (means There are pictures being circulated in internet everyday) Is this sentence passive? even without "by" the doer (e.g by him) would it be understood as "There are pictures circulated in internet everyday"02br
02br
002. He is the one ( who or that?) causes all the troubles in the house. (some people use "that" but isn't "who" the grammatical one in this context)02br
02br
00Thanks0-
