Answer to Question 1

Answer: E
Explanation: E) To avoid ethical lapses in your visuals, consider all possible interpretations, provide enough background information for readers to interpret your visuals correctly, and don't hide or minimize visual information that readers need in order to make informed judgments. Most important, make sure your visuals are honestthat they don't intentionally or unintentionally distort the truth.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: E
Explanation: E) Position your visuals so that your audience won't have to flip back and forth (in printed documents) or scroll (on screen) between visuals and the text that discusses them. If space constraints prevent you from placing visuals close to relevant text, include pointers such as Figure 2 (on the following page) to help readers locate the image quickly.
