Answer to Question 1

Answer: E
Explanation: E) Lists help simplify complex subjects, highlight the main points, enable skimming, and give readers a visual break. Make your lists easy to read by making all the items parallel and keeping individual items as short as possible.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D
Explanation: D) When a list is developed, each item in the list can contain a number, if appropriate. More often, there is a graphical element called a bullet. The bullet can take a variety of shapes such as circles, squares or dashes, but all are called bullets.
